indiscernible
you've been to the other side
one november night
and you've had nothing to hide
with your silent tongue
mouthing things we couldn't bring
ourselves to understand
or interpret
wondering still what they were
wondering what you meant
after the words went
wondering if we've let you down
somehow
and I hope you realize from
wherever you are now
that we tried our best
you've seen the other side
on one late-autumn day
and you've had nothing to hide
with your silent tongue
conferring with the dead
several feet from your bed
indiscernible to us when we came
wondering still who they were
wondering what He meant
when they were sent
wondering if they've let you down
somehow
and I hope you realize from
wherever you are now
that it was for the best
and that it was your time
