MIRROR IMAGE
When the fresh young world
Shone gold and green
I ran with you
In fields unseen
Scented with mischief
Perfumed with adventure
Seeped in innocence
And then when the world
Turned red and blue
We were never one
We were ever two
Through friends and lovers
Jobs and child
We were sword and shield
At each others side
Life blessed and cursed Â
Fortunes came and went
But the thread that bound
Neither frayed or bent
As the hurtling world
Stole us along
We were bass and treble
In life's wild song
Then came the dayÂ
You lost your song
And the world turned grey
And the world felt wrong
Then when the world
Turned blacker still
I bade farewellÂ
On that misty hill
Now the aging world
Has lost its sheen
Souls mirror smashed
To smitherines
And at my side
ââââââJust a gaping hole
For my beloved twin
The reaper stole.
Marion Price (2019)
