Relieved
Hungry, wretched.
We are not beaten,
simply crushed.
We never get dry of pain.
We are fluid and dissolved,
one dripping, soaked, oily mass.
We are
s h a t t e r e d.
Child-like cries lash in the night,
sinking
painfully
into
silence..
then
comfort!
The smile of a friend dances
in a pool of yellow with spiral red streams.
Behind us lay rainy weeks, grey earth.
But we are saved.
at last,
we are saved.
