Remember
I remember you in the shadows
before sunlight was stole away
sitting still out there
in the silence
not knowing
what was to come of day
I remember you when the dirt had stiffened
the winds, once wicked
up and whisked away
there were shells but no seashore
as echoes rung through rain
I remember the drear of December
lasting all way to May
bare and barren
hearts beating empty
an anchor to a wounded prey
I remember you
a soul slipping from memory
crying for life to be living
more than to be left alone
