Broken Lyric

Broken Lyric

A Poem by Robert Anderson

in my  arms
her  grievances
flutter as thousand thoughts
and press upon the grave
of  our union

twisting that knife
to drain
such melody
and  wishing it
to worthier lovers than we

my  every thought
is now
a  trail of tears
as  she
evokes
a  cloudburst

it
overwhelms
our love
leading my heart
to  mourn
again
and  again
in sync
with a broken lyric

and I  long for her.
