Spindrift

She stood outside and cried
Inexplicably in front of me

It was like she was
Saying goodbye
Without saying a word
Just tears

She came there deliberately
Shadowing the street
Like an intruder that
Needed support

Like a burglar
Up for stealing everything
Including your heart

But what did she mean
To do by coming and never
Returning?

Closed closed closed

I need a friend
Who can anchor my abilities
Encouraging my persistence
Reflect my cosmic powers
Eye contact that says yes
You can! Because I
Still believe that you’re
Incredible

What is this deep sense
Of hurt that requires a
Modern reckoning?

As I hold her
On the sidewalk
And she shakes with
Sobbing sounds
I feel her ache
I draw her pain inward

And yet I never
See her again after that

Isn’t life amazingly
Strange
