Moving

Move, 
I say to me, 
move away from the shore,
move deep, 
move beyond the swells, below the waves and roar 
down into seabed, 
move along the reefs, along the vents, crawl with crabs, 
join your grief down there. 
Do not faint,
by that I mean let it move 
and let it be moved in you
which is to say 
accept your being, 
let grief have its way, 
which is to say, 
yes he is gone now and you 
will always, always know it.

  1. So lovely, unaffected, comprehensible. So true (and personally relevant). The last 2 lines say it all. Please know that I am sorry for your loss. --Jack
