Heavy feet carry me
through transparent darkness;
wandering in unknown territory
of lost promises
and wishes
The voices of the possessed
push me forward;
Stumbling into shades
of light
and nowhereness
My bones crack
beneath your gentle paws,
as I remember my lilies
dying
in your garden
My hand reaches out
and disappears in emptiness
while heart-shaped leaves
cover these pictures
of you
The night claims its right
to die out
and gives way to a search
without voices
calling me to look
back
