Take One.

 

 

Take One.

 

Take one from a pair and trauma arises,
ocean buckles,
sunset ices,
waiting grows fists and memory sighs.

 

Take one from a duo and lost are smiles,
lonely ungloves,
solo arrives,
life loses bliss and future demises.

 

Take one from two and sorrow tightens
love uncouples,
oneness frightens,
lips stay un-kissed and distress climbs.

 

Take one from other and spoil an item
parting troubles,
nothing revives,
     sudden grief hits with no compromise.

... even when so well poetically put .. there is little that can be done in the immediate aftermath of such a tragic loss ..

Here, you so eloquently emphasise the many facets of loss that might easily be forgotten or missed by those who have yet to experience such a devastating parting ..

This is excellent Fay and I sincerely hope others will now follow the trail I have laid in this direction ...
