how do you hold
what you love
is gone
how does holding
fail a body
and leave go
how suddenly
an aperture
opens
and, for a time,
cannot see
I will be blind,
all of us, with you
while a heart heals
until skies reside
and earth
familiar food
we will
fill our cups
before yours
and we will pour
from ours
slowly
to the stillness
in your ringing cup
to make it full
and hold you
