A Deafening Moment
Before I pick up the receiver-
I brace myself for what I feared.
...
Suddenly I’m lost at sea,
The eye of the hurricane is staring back at me.
I feel my insides fold up and wail,
My organs impaled,
While all around me glass shatters in perfect symmetry.
A hair pin bounces off marble deafeningly,
...
But how on earth did I know
Before I answered the phone?
Now I can’t imagine carrying on
in a world where you’re gone.
I brace myself for what I feared.
