Jon K Poet Free verse

Among Us

With a white light that nobody saw
she began to walk 
among us.
Watching, listening, observing the flow.

As she saw love she grew brighter
yet still unseen
trod carefully.
A silent advocate, amalgamating a heart.

"I love you", "Darling", "My Sweet",
the beautiful tunes
within fleshy receptacles.
Oh how they sang for her that day.

A temporary visit to gauge the crowds
inconspicuous yet vast
powerful but softly.
Turns and travels in an opposing direction.

It had only been yards, a mere moment
to bear witness
oh how we change.
To hurt and bitter and spite.

With a dark shadow that nobody saw
she began to fall 
beneath us.
Retching, tormented, avoiding the flow.
For the ten thousandth time.
