You Moved from
Island to Island
Janet Kuypers
3/17/12
after the loss,
life goes on
as more time pases,
the more you forget
but after one talks
about the spirit world
I remember you,
in the kitchen
moving from island
to cabinet, to sink
you’re a fixture with us,
but then I realize
that as more time passes
the more we forget
and at the beginning
we wanted to forget
you moving from island
to sink, to island
it hurt too much
to remember
but as time wears on,
life goes on
and as more time passes
the more we forget
that you are always
there with us
as we move
from island to island
