Rhia Madison Thomer Poet Free verse

Remembering

these same four walls
these walls that she            DIED 
in.

memories
        wouldn't you know
    it's raining again
tense-----waiting
sick-----------feeling
this familiar border ----[LINE]
of life 
                   and   death
the same empty cold halls
halls she last                      LIED
in.

remembrance
           i can still feel
         the clammy cold 
      kiss of death, WAITING.
for her
                      for me.
these same last prayers
these prayers that pass my   LIPS
again.

forever more
               i wonder 
           if we are both still
             expecting
  to open
   OUR eyes
 and HUG each OTHER
    and SMILE
like we did
                  like never again
these same things that haunt my memory
these memories in those         BIPS
      dying
    [gone.]
