Never to See You – Jamais Encore #poetry

Ce que fera je fais…

Si je ne vous voit jamais encore?

The question was what…

what would I

what will I do

when you leave

you leave and

never

return?

 

Life giving oxygen leaves

in quick blasts

at the very thought

thought

you gone

my world

vacant

*

 

An empty bed

empty hand

empty heart

empty…

*

 

The first breath comes

second in succession

painfully

filling the empty spaces

 

 

A painless moment

accompanied by another

gasping for another breath

hoping for another breath

pleading for refuge from the pain

death of my heart

replaced with life

life is happening

life will happen

Je Vivrais
