poison comes softly - HP poem - G
Nov. 5th, 2006 02:19 ampoison comes softly,
across the waves,
and whispers summon you.
I cannot mourn, for I know where you have gone.
willingly you left me,
for this fight, this war,
all this pain you want no part in;
and slowly your body lets go of life.
you called me, my darling,
you called me, and I could not answer,
though I wanted to.
—oh how I wanted to—
and gently I felt you in my dream,
and I held you,
—did you feel me?—
and your eyes closed,
and you whispered—
poison comes softly,
across the waves,
and whispers summon you.
loneliness embraces me,
and rage, and fear,
and I am all alone here after everything.
the poison is so bitter,
so sharp—bitingly sharp—
and I think of your eyes,
brilliant and shining and so full of life,
and I do not regret.
and the
poison comes softly,
across the waves,
and whispers summon you.
whispers summoned you,
and now they summon me.
and the poison comes so softly.
