Just This

By A_Puppet_Show


Light shone a pathetic silhouette,
a scavenger child: We are no enemy,
yet we do not trust, you cling to me,
beg for remembrance; just this?
He did, so many years so much light,
and on his skin the silhouette.

    'pathetic'.. I so love that word in that first line. It slightly reminds me of so much 'modern' british poetry that I was never a fan of until I really found out what poetry was..
