WE WILL NEVER FORGET AND HOLD YOU IN OUR HEARTS
EVERY DAY
TIME HEALS
(so they say)
five years on
the sun rises and sets
the moon stands guard
watching over us
the daily grind goes on
they say
time heals
this bears no resemblance
to my reality
a chaplin said
it will get better with time
bollocks
these words are like staples
into the soft tissue of my brain
they jolt and scar
shoot like poisons
into the open wounds of my heart
fly like vultures
into the cavernous ravines
of my soul
each second, each hour
each day, month and year
is simply a marker
of your absence in my life
of your senseless murder
of my utter despair
