oh god,
dissolves me
like the colours
of your brush
like how you
would reveal
yourself slowly to me
on the canvas
the final picture
you would let me see
inspired by
Death is potential to that Man
Who dies—and to his friend—
Beyond that—unconspicuous
To Anyone but God—
Of these Two—God remembers
The longest—for the friend—
Is integral—and therefore
Itself dissolved—of God—
Emily Dickinson
