living down a dead end street
where there's no sunlight
and shadows of doubt linger...
Till your love blew them away.

Brick by brick I built my walls,
despite fires raging,
I preserved paths that connected
bridges between our breathless existence. 

Now that my heartbeats

as bitter tears from hazel eyes reduce the stone to sand.

mostly elderly when we came
always quiet … 
empty nests side-by-side
aching for spring
but winter came instead
(the winter of life)
friends … good people -
