His Pain

Lorna



It hurts so

To see his pain

The realization that

He is vulnerable

Has taken light

Out of his eyes

Filling them instead

With rain

That someday he will die

A premature bereavement

Is now a truth

So previously hidden

That its sudden revelation

Is the cause of

Sad wonderment
