Helen
by Carmen H Gray
Nearly a year ago
When you left
I never had a chance to say a proper goodbye
I was engaged
To cancer at the time
My life turned upside down
Pieces of me scattered
In the menagerie of loss
Today I found
My yesteryear self
Reflected in your lens
From another time
Your keen eye
Spanning the future
As if to say
“I see into you, always, my friend”
One response to “Helen”
Lovely words. Beautiful woman!
