She had been thinking
that morning, she said
of how well
I had coped

Those words
have since broken
the silence

Moisture upon cracked lines
of suffered skin

Your reign rejuvinated

Watching fingers bend
the way
flesh rolls over joints
and back again

I never forgot
your shape
the comfortable way
it became less
that you plagued me

How long before
next silence
dominates
where it should again?



Instant karma's gonna get you.

of silence...

Gem, I felt like coming back and telling you that there hasn't been a day that this has been up where I haven't come and read it and reread it...

It's magnetizing.
