watery drops
fill heavily
lined eyes.
in the darkness
no one else can see
except me...
standing so closely.
cars pass quickly
by the sidewalk
where i'm sitting.
they don't know about
her tears.
or of your ending
a year ago by where they drive now.
they pass by so nonchalantly.
i wonder if they're happy.
i hope they are.
you slowly let go of this railing
that i look up at now from below,
spanning the ocean,
taking people to this suffocating city.
this railing, this step,
kept your thin heart beating.
that one step
takes it all away.
the world is going on without you.
blood written tragedy on
the pavement where i stand.
the rain has almost washed it away now.
