SKIN by Kristi Kirby

Bamboo
Rain
Drops down
Hollow ground
Round
And
Round
Love
Around
Haunting
Aroma
Silk
Skin
Undid
In
Bed

And if I go , while you’re still here …
Know that I live on ,
Vibrating to a different measure
Behind a thin veil you cannot see through.
You will not see me,
So you must have faith .
I wait for the time when we can soar
together again ,
Both aware of each other.
Until then , live your life to the fullest
And when you need me ,
Just whisper my name in your heart
… I will be there .

Emily Dickinson
