Muscle Memory

I don’t know what you did
but I know that you did
something
my body, weak and innocent
my memories, a dark forest
endless and unknowable;
the vast walls I built in one day
with my own, trembling hands
have blocked out the Sun, until
he refuses to show his face here,
until garden has become tomb
and now, in the dark
with the waiting
and the gnashing of teeth
I sit in silence, as I’ve always done
