Words
spoken in brief conversation
tingle unsteady nerves
We are one

Smile crooked with grief
tight and timid
beckons
my hands
to touch you
We are one

The basket
filled with dark clothes
appears empty
I wash them
they bleed into white linen
gray
We are one

House
cold
winter has come in
without cheerful holidays
you cry
We are one

6 o’clock
Sunday
I wake
packed with linens
leaving you
with an empty basket
of black clothes

We were one
