Evening Window II
by Vincent Canizaro Jr.
|
light crept softly
through that evening window
you whispered
that it was better
to be alive
than in a poem
hanging from a branch
it was then
the moon was brightest;
silver
through those weathered panes
lined the hardwood floor
in that silent bedroom
there was no part of you
I left untouched
