Departure
A Poem by
Solidad
Three paces, then stop. Removing his Rorschach mask, "Won't this be your day tomorrow?" Placing a diamond on my finger. I negated him with a gesture of ambivalence. I felt like the exit wounds, in his neck. Bending down, touching his lips to my forehead. Death wiped the remorse from my eyes; and begged, "No llores."

This was love, fear, mystery and comfort all wrapped together tightly.
There was darkness, but it felt surprisingly safe. You really brought every
element of human emotion into the fold.

An amazing write. I love how you always feel your words and not just "pick" them. Well done.
