Aftermath Isolation
standing here
in this faze of loss
foreshadowing the time ahead
now that you are officially dead
a drink of water will not do
sitting here
in this period of grief
creating an itinerary for the time ahead
now that you are officially dead
a swig of soda will not do
laying here
in this early stage of 'post'
balancing my sanity for the time ahead
now that you are officially dead
a glass of milk will not do
remaining here
in this dusty depression of leftovers
carefully rationing the time ahead
now that you are officially dead
a bottle of old memories strategically blocks my view
