Thing of shadows
child of crows and dragons
and the memory of crystals - especially emeralds
Becomes something of the past - learning to let go
Child of sadness
thing hidden in cupboards
kept in houses forgotten - this was my home
Becomes something of the past - learning to let go
Thing so obsolete
Child who was unnamed
in grief you were not loved
in despair you were never nurtured
I knew you by
the crumbs you
left me - learning to let go
