For the last time

By Silvia, 17th of March 2021

 

The world spins slow on its axis

I welcome the sun’s acid kiss 

The higher the peak, the deeper the abyss

Skittish lamb, unsteady in a premature spring 

To love you is to live without skin,

Uncoupled from time 

You arrived and I’ve no gifts to bring 

Will you teach me gentleness 

How to lean into the world’s invisible hand 

Secure that in the night of your cloud eyes 

I am seeing my present for the last time.
