Matter Of Days
Matter Of Days
There is no declaration of righteousness
for such tortuous acts of providence.
No consolation for a reticent child
suffering in the abstract world of consequence.
I can relate to your pain, but in reality
suffering is beyond my comprehension.
Where life is concerned, simple rhyming words
Are trivial compensation.
When you read this poem, think of what you lost
and do not give me praise.
For I come to remind you of a love,
that changed forever...
In just a matter of days.
