Anniversary of June

The clock ticks, People change

even the ones dearly loved 

They are nothing, like Anniversaries

Of being alone, being by ourselves.

Morning floods my senses

Not unlike years before

when I would wake up to live 

where I was your only friend

The Noon hangs low with some fiery blazes

Flames, knowing my weaknesses

But midday is pure, unaltered

driving into prime numbness

Opaque like familiarity 

The touch of love, it's been so long

The light that filled my womb, its long gone

How could I be satisfied?

The years they still run like silver dreams

How merciful are the changes

That leave suffering cast adrift

In memories of long ago.

A painting hanging in a gallery with no one to view it may have expressed as much. The fashion may have changed. A worthy effort.
