Hello Grief
You've blindsided me again
You keep catching me alone
In the small quiet moments
In the reliving of an unexpected memory
In the painting of a room
Knowing the last time I did this, with you
In the trimming of branches
Hopeful hours spent in your yard
In the colour of a shirt
That perfectly matches your eyes
In the finding of a ticket stub
Remembering that weekend away
In an old airline boarding pass
Used as a bookmark and long forgotten
In the newest release at the video store
Snuggling in Gold Class together
In the theatre advertisement in the newspaper
For a show we saw together
In the reading of an article
That I know would interest you
In the remembering
that I don't know you anymore
In the sinking realisation
That perhaps I never did
KAB
