te extraño
By Magdalena
I stood on the shore
of the earth
felt
your soul leave
my childlike
lips
let slip
your name
in silence
at my feet
you are
unending
and remember nothing
of the rusting world
a constant light
behind my eyes
you disconnect
but never leave
te extraño
with wings of moon-moths
ever waxing
through galaxies
I cannot reach
my angel
brother

My brother died as well. Lo extraño también. Poetry always touches me, but this piece went beyond that.

An unforgettable image evoked by your words of beauty and perhaps bon voyage Magdalena. Sad and yet perhaps bittersweet in the recollection, cheers! - Dan (good to see you again)
