A Poem by Erica Wilkinson

The line between
Pre death and post death
Is an unloved and faded thing. 
My mind lives in the pre death days,
Thriving and blooming 
In the warm limited sunshine.
A time when such tiny things
Mattered so much more 
Than they ever could now.
My body is here. Post death.
It lives with new people, 
Has new experiences,
But so longs for the days 
When she was here and 
My glass was half full 
Not half empty. 
I ate toast and honey for breakfast,
It was bearable.

I liked the great imaginary you chosen here with the simple words. Good work.

Hmm . . . Could be connected with reincarnation; change in life; perhaps even a literal (and spiritual) death. Clever.
