Separation
Only gently
I place the hanging strand of hair
behind my ear
I do not want to ripple
the soft pain
lying there like a pond
Time
is dissolving your pearl
Helen
Now
on this warm summer night
where stars
out of my window
draw the shape of your illusion
Security
invades your mind
I can no longer touch you
not anymore
never again.
