MYSTIC MEMENTOS


I’m a million miles away
and I can’t cast a spell
over you

Lately
when I’m blazing
I’m amazed
that I even have
something left
to get started

I created a picture
of an entire life
Spent together
with you

Mystic mementos
and memories

What might have been

Now you have built
A world of fabric
scraps
Bronze trinkets
Plastic spoons
And tears
All held together
tightly
with delicate
thread

These little pieces
Mean so much
Each a chapter
in a frayed book
you took
from a lonely shelf
somewhere

The pages have
remnants of faces
I see myself in one
Maybe in the next world
When emotions overflow
You’ll stitch me up

But what do I know
