Poem -

The Dying Of Light

Happen she thought
To hold onto it
To clutch it to her, for as long as
she may
Happen she broke
Like a mam letting go, though as
mam, she would know
And she always did... know...

That her light
Would soon end, and that she
Would let go
For like mam she would know
and,
She always did know

How her bosom would ache
How she'd keen for her
light, now as babe caught
and trapped
In the fast coming night

Sacrificed...happen soon,
Her heart broke
One more light child consumed
By a night's
Raging moon

I might have kept a thing
Your green eye in a glass case

Serious frown etched in sunscreen
Nails gleaning cherry red
Like a bomb checking it's fuse...

You make me want to be sweet with you.
We'd make love and you'd never come

But you would...
