Deprture
She waited
And dimmed
Burning
The setting sun’s a heavy weight
She wallowed
Rotting
Horizon far behind
A heart’s a lover’s lovelorn urn
She endured
Brazen
Tear shaped
Hornets stitched her broken skin
She remembered
Searing
Slow dancing fireflies
Embers sparkling in his eyes
She reached
Frail hands
Chilled stone and bone
Heed hot candle’s shapeless wax
She acquitted
Marauder
Clinical tolerance
High functioning excommunication
She walked
Discerning
A deep cold abyss
To search within and be swallowed
She walked
And waited
And remembered
Ceremonial departure
