Sun and Wind

The sun will continue to shine.
The wind will continue to blow.
On and on the melodramatic seconds will tick on.
I will be a second of thought in
a minute held over from defeat.
Vapours escaping from untangled pockets.
Heart binding in terror. Eyes glazing
in momentary
silences of submission.
The sun will continue to shine.
The wind will continue to blow.
The ring is a symbol of the vows.
The vows are symbolized by the ring.
Throw it away. Toss it out.
It is a useless emblem of a forgotten promise.
Means nothing.
Says nothing.
Empties like any lost bottle of perfume
that once smelled sweet and now fouls
the air.
The sun will continue to shine.
The wind will continue to blow.
Step lightly over the charred remains of the
marital home.
There are demons floating like flags
which
call out to everyone the failure.
You have never fulfilled the promise.
I am the bottle of perfume.
I am neglected.
I neglect.
The sun will continue to shine.
The wind will continue to blow.
