Night Words
after 3 years
I was away when you died.
You said “safe travels” before I left,
Words I should have said to you.
You said “safe travels” before I left,
Words I should have said to you.
But my plans could not be changed.
The rule-breaking was not for me.
The die had been cast.
The rule-breaking was not for me.
The die had been cast.
I was not meant to be there,
By Whoever’s plans, as in
Other things, and other lives.
By Whoever’s plans, as in
Other things, and other lives.
