Fading

Fading you lose my secrets one by one they skip or stumble broken thoughts your fingers float around my face as if touch restores remembrance words lose you names slide through mazes, slip into dark desperation I lose you with sharp edges of knives that cut ties as if they have always been loose I write you into words to fasten you we need to learn what let go means *** Copyright © Darren White August 9, 2018
