Ashes
Light extinguished, glimmer defeated,
spread across my heart a sacred scar
the oxygen of time a cliched healer,
locked in a cage my joy hath retreated.

Ashes of you in every word that I mutter,
shadows of you held captive in my mind
memories of oneness, complete sublimeness
butterfly in Spring, glistening wings all aflutter.

Butterfly has flown, my heart cannot reason,
darkness surrounds my veil of tears,
hoping in vain, void of logic or sensibility
the flutterer will return another season.

Thank you for feeding my soul tonight, Barb. I always enjoy your poetry, and I needed this. I was craving something poignant and sad...this hits the spot.
