A Nice Death
It could be nice, at
the end,
side by side on the
porch swing
sipping tea,
swapping tales
laughing and sighing
and sitting quietly alone
together
while the sun moves
and the clouds move and the sky stays perfectly still
and the moment stays
perfectly still
sweet, drippy-ripe
now
after each and all
and everything
after the bustle we
call mine
making our own way
after the hey day
and the sunshine
of doing
while we're waiting
for
release
that will come too
soon whenever it comes but never soon enough
to thwart the last
moment of finally knowing
what we always knew
split-wide heart
releases spirit into moment
free
be
