Bitter Blue by Alisa Jsfor those who wear your shadow's face
we ran along the waters edge
to leave behind those latent tales
of Christmases that tried and failed
to catch a glimpse of those remaining shots,
such pain and thievery
we tried, I know we did
and for a bleak pause at sudden recovery,
the moment stopped
we were done
in one broad flash,
worthy of cinematography
full scale
grandiose,
complete with trumpets and a splash of glee
not to last
not meant to be,
and now I travel light
memories weigh not so much,
though I venture near
the time of need and bitter blue
