Just This

Light shone a pathetic silhouette,
a scavenger child: We are no enemy,
yet we do not trust, you cling to me,
beg for remembrance; just this?
He did, so many years so much light,
and on his skin the silhouette.

a fleeting photograph of something so tangible but the reality has a surreal feel to it.

'pathetic'.. I so love that word in that first line. It slightly reminds me of so much 'modern' british poetry that I was never a fan of until I really found out what poetry was..

Oh wow, I got lost in those words for a few minutes. I felt as if I were floating, and whispering from above holding out my hand. Dunno why...? Beautiful!!!! Julia~
