you gave her a moment of magic just briefly she knew it had to sustain her for the rest of her time here on the earth reality's not her strong suit to return to a life without you is too sad
The brief poem evokes such strong emotions and sadness. The lines "she knew it had to sustain her/ for the rest of her time here on the earth" express much strength and grit.
To stay with the moments that feed you is an almost impossible escape from reality, best done in private with a "Do not disturb" sign on the door. I could be the person in your poem.
Reality is painful indeed at times - I love how you summon such big emotion in so few words - very powerful - Jae
ReplyDeleteOh such a poignant poem
ReplyDeleteYes, with a love like that, imagine the depth of the grief and loss. You have captured it so well.

ReplyDeleteRall, I liked your moment of magic, nice way to go, nicely penned.
ReplyDeleteVery intense, just as that "one magic moment" can be, and yes it can last for a whole life long. Beautiful, Rall!
