Brave Rains
Walking in a humid rains eerie, strange copper wave
your shirt a most prized skin on, hold on! the scent losing
undeniable lady grief keeps pace on me, like pressed powder somehow
there i still feel your touches and warm in a cozy knot knowing
you long after it's Godly, the clover filling and never popping
far up above the sidewalk breakage just as determined for sungold shoulders
so immense the life passed, only brave rains fall
where once you walked and I now calm
a busy head within hounding a Highness beyond mortal reach, why Elizabeth?
temporarily estranged from the onrushing reality
going on not despite no, know
it is with your loving spirit always present and guiding,
in relinquishing the body she breathes
in everything eternally and withstands,
hopefully somewhere near my shoes.
