Dónall Dempsey - THE SUN SHINING IN KODACHROME

2014-11-08 13

Deep in mid-
-Winter

wakes from her dream

follows her crying shadow

from room to room
running before her

arriving at the picture frame
that holds them

perfect & still
in honeymoon embrace

(the sun shining
in Kodachrome)

love then
unable

to concieve of
love now

the bite of bitterness
the black & white of divorce

naked in moonlihgt
eyes shining

with tears

tears.
