First Outing
You know he’s gone
you’re left behind like a shipwreck
silent sobs float in the air
and console you.
Yes, nobody understood
the desperation in your heart
all night long, sleepless,
you promised not to cry
to go visit your girlfriend
to share a cup of coffee
like the good old days
she told you that with her husband
they planted a new tree in the yard
and you have none of this
but the dark thoughts
that visit you every night.
Where’s the light you hope
to follow for the rest of your way?
