Poetic license
My memory has chose
To filter out factual events
As to the dead
My conscious pays
A false connection
I wished I had felt
Instead of the gap
Growing up
Was ever present
If I have nothing good to say
Lest the dead in fractures lay
Of best intention
Reproduction
What could have been
If both parties
Had more time
