Angry words
as red as the sunset

You left me
with the ocean
licking my tears
that fell

on my toes.
(I had painted them
crimson. Just for you)

The sunset loves you
I watched it wrap you
lovingly
as you stood
looking down on me

(Why was it I never realized
you always looked down on me?)

I put my fist in my mouth
so you would not hear
the short sound
of my heart wailing...

You said,
"I'm sorry..."

But it floated away
like driftwood
on the tides
of remembrance...




"Where is my rusted knight?
I have let all the petals on my crown fall..."
