Song sets
I have listened to you breathe, the symphony
of your heartbeat and closest to the tender petals
of your mind wilting into footsteps, tiny, deaf
enough for me to hear the wind walk you away
into the oblivion of the past as you wear the hands
of time and turn goodnight into goodbye.
These echoes I hold dear, and its silence belongs to
me
as I walk my solitude in steps tiny as a heartbeat
tickling the tocks of time at the back of my waiting.
