.off you go.


I have no poetic musings
for your bittersweet absence
I'd like to say
"I regret..."
but that isn't true

I don't regret
the nights apart
our frosty days together
all the time you were slipping away
I never tried to break the fall

and so we're severed
sometimes I feel it
deep within my bones
and other times
it floats on the surface
easily blown away by the wind

I have no words of comfort
or promises of a future
no explainations for wrongdoing.

I leave it all
securely
in Him greater than we.
