<p style="text-align:center;"><em>In a Blink of an Eye, There Was Just This, Word Root Remaining in This Room</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>Stood on that Narrowed, Slanted Field at the Bottom of the Hearts</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>A Sort of Narrowness, a Kind of Wilderness-Filled Plateau Too</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>I’d Walked on My Field of Yellow Flowers, Parallel to You, Walking Along on Yours</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>So Many Years Had Passed</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>So Many Years Had, Passed</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>There’s Only, One Last Blink of an Eye Left in This Room Now</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img src="https://i0.wp.com/saveagrave.net/images/girls.jpg" width="876" height="657" />not my photo&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>The Horses that, Devoured up the Autumns, the Cicadas of the Springtime</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>The Butterflies without Form, Finding the Nectars of the Questions Asked,</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>Along with the Things that Were Ordinary, Belonging, to the Afternoons</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>One of These Days, It Will Come</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>One of These Days, It Will Become, Willing</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>The Endless and Limited, Everything I Should Be Hating</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>Seemed to be All, in Relations to You</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">So, there’s that hint of a love gone wrong, or a love that’d ended, way too soon, and you feel that scent of regret from the poet, of loss of someone dear, and hating the individual for leaving too.</p>
