The day after

 


Blessed be. 

Velumbound. 


This is an elegiac, contemplative transmission exploring the quiet grief, internal isolation, and lingering beauty left in the wake of losing a deeply cherished love.


Shall we begin? 


(A lone voice whispers) 



Are lone goodbyes like turtledoves that serenely fly away 


In wild winds of memories of a once beautiful Yesteryear 


Of one day

They're here


And one day they're gone.


But you always, afterwards, cry silently inside 


Somewhere deep and quiet,

In new realms of unfamiliarity


Where beloved memories hide


When you remember moments of tranquillity and sincerity 


Before that old love went away and unjustly died
