Foreshadowing

October 15, 2023

Hollow candlelight shadows

Had meant nothing, overpowered by the wind's

Leaf-colored footsteps. Better leaves,

Because the footsteps as she walked away

Looked like ashes. And,

If, under the waves of lost remembrance

There was ever a tide of lost goodbyes,

-those waves still-

Just for a second.

Until she says, "never again,"

And makes her last promise.
