Script of Life

 

                                    so blissfully

 

how the child bathes the toy, decks it with the colourful dress, feeds, and sings a lullaby

 

                            the way you see the unseen

 

as time trickles ahead like sands between the fingers leaving me behind alone

 

                                 a monosyllable
