I wanted to walk
and walk
the night away,
my silent words
trapped
in the frozen breath
I breathed.
Stars hung
with grace
like tears in the black.
I wanted to tear the moon
from the sky
and just hold it
a little while.
I searched for a place
to lay to rest
your name
that was eating up my chest,
And I found
a quiet hill
at the edge of the city.
A place
where broken things gather.
I dug the earth
with my bare hands
frozen
cold
and I missed your warm soul.
I laid your name
there in the dust
among frozen flowers.
Someday
I’ll look back
when winter has given way
to the sun
and I’ll see this place,
rising
from fallen leaves.
An echo.
And where once
I laid your name
I’ll see
only
white flowers.
Life 
Always graceful and beautiful.
Beautiful Jlynn. As always. xo
