Well, it’s almost ten years now…

four more days

unbelievable how time has floated by.

My tears dried up over the years,

but a crack still in my heart

from a loss so unexpected.

Time has covered up the crack

not very well but it tries

what remains, I can’t describe.

A decade ago,

death crept into my right ear

and tears burst out of that heart crack.

It’s almost ten years now.

Everything changed.
