Your Leaving








The weather vane changed direction
just as another drop of coffee fell
into the masses.
I almost imagined the Laughing Buddha
come to life and walk away;
          [no more lights in the room]

A moth escapes
through the broken glass
in search of a brighter bulb.

Silence cries:
the vacant space feels so
         
                empty








Author notes


This moment was inspired by the leaving of Maestro Azuma in the anime "La Corda D'Oro". I felt the intensified moment that they showed, and penned down my version of the feeling.
