it
is hard to believe, you are gone.
Like
the melody of a much-loved song
your
refrain lives on.
Suspended in the twilight 'tween light and death
straddling in vain ‘twix dark and life

Looking at the date, I wrote this one before mum passed away.
Much of our knowledge or 'knowing' is buried deep in our subconscious minds; poetry is one of the ways I access this hidden part of me.
Suspended in the twilight 'tween light and death
straddling in vain ‘twix dark and life
straining
to be understood but
simply
wanting to be somewhere else, entirely...
Since
you’ve gone, the days have stretched
into wafered sheets of gold leaf;
memories of you hold a shining sting
oh came back - please!
I promise to bind you in the loving threads
of whispered eternity.Copyright Suzy Rigg 2012
