Death Becomes Us

We love through the slipping away of life.
Grasping through shadows,           
 dissolved into memories of  home  & family                                                                                                  
                                                                               Phantoms …….
of remembered  places and time       
washing over into the current of passing years,
The past extending,
time expanding
into the blinding brightness of tomorrow

 Last breath>>> released
                                              tastes deep to the tongue…..in tears.
