Today was really hard. I felt like my mind was slipping.
I sent an sms
I tried to unsend it
I tried to take it back
...
sounding off the far mountain wall,
bouncing back quieter and softer.
more beautiful with each fainter repetition
and more sad too, the original brightness fading and slowly dying
...
a sound like ice cracking
loud and echoing up the hill
made the workers stop and look up
birds flew into the sky in fright
...
Sometimes in the heat of despair
we lost sight of perspective
It bends and curves and distorts
Like light round a black hole
...
I heard he died today
I thought he died long ago
I loved his novel about one day
I liked his simplicity - his tone
...
