Plages Roses by Amedee-Julien Marcel-Clement
am I a cloud reflected on water
evaporated before I exist
held in a two dimensional plane
in-between but
not anywhere
shadows scream at my absence
no matter how hard I chase
I can't catch up
never feel I fully arrive
sometimes
I take the deepest breath
think ~
"this time I'll grasp hold somehow"
if only the darkness didn't swallow me up
the breeze delights in whispering I'm nothing
moved along as if insignificant
dropped without warning
to shatter into pieces
and on it goes
til the end of time
stop me here
all is never lost
cycles are constantly moving
ever present
I transpire
soak
disappear
reappear
retain hope
I can't hold on
but I exist still in flux
to be present in a moment
or absent in one
I take form if I soak you through to your skin
through you ~ the embodiment I yearn for
don't send me away
to become a visceral haunting
a spectral presence
clinging shamefully to feel your warmth
brushed off
to fall to the floor
I know it's temporary
I just can't help
but feel every death
