...

the puzzle is done,
with pieces to spare,
weaving a mystery,
all their own,

swept up,
swept away,
swept under, and
wept over,

they remain,
taunting,
narrating an endless story,
without meaning.

...

we tread lightly,
lest the past be woken,
we speak softly,
lest the past be woken,
we breathe not at all,
lest the past be woken,

what if the past is here to stay,
despite all of it,
lightly tread,
softly spoken,
hardly breathed,
all of it.

...

what of wants?,
without needs,

what of lust?,
without love,

what of words?,
without meaning,

what of existence?,
without conviction,

what of life?,
without hope,

what of me?,
without the past.
