Dead Things

Blood-in-the-water

I kid myself I can still feel you.

Fingers hovering over the send key, only to tap delete and toss the device away.

Alone together in separate darks.

Like the small white sharks we have become – sniffing grief from a million miles away.

Dead things who nevertheless bleed.

Fresh blood, in the salted ocean of vainly wept tears.

    1. Thanks Brother. I love Henna, she’s wicked talented and has been very supportive of me and my work. These last eighteen months have been some of the worst and painful of my life. So the support from fellow writers has meant a hell of a lot.
