Myopathy
Well. I cannot move
this indifferent arm.
But then she took my quiet hand
and at least I could watch
her finish herself
with dead fingers.
I felt her warmth,
her wetness,
even if only as spectator.
For now, I can still bend forward
to kiss. For now,
that must suffice.
For now. For now.
Somewhere I can hope there's still
happiness
in the luxury of her body,
whose different paths I can no longer
openly explore.
This throbs with disappointment. But truly dead fingers can't feel, and the hope of actual feeling shines through. A sad and wistful poem, but nursing a small spark of hope in its arms.
