Always In My Light
Do not mourn over
My body, my love
For now I am a dove
That takes flight
Like a crow is to the dark
I am to the light-
The essence of being
An energy that is unyielding -
It was maddening to see you
Lost, in a daze, always
Having been lucid like
My crutch when I leaned
On you, too heavy to topple
You were balanced, poised,
And lean. My rock, my love,
Keep your chin above your
Slender beautiful neck
I am now forever behind
You, where you stand
Ready to put up a fight.
I love you.
