Benjamin

Bright blue eyes
burning with tears
as we stood in
a fluorescent lit
hallway
holding hands
saying our goodbyes.
Hours, days, months,
melt into years
that have passed
us by. Sailing
away through
Christmas, work,
roses, Packer games,
baseball, laughter,
movies, family, friends
and a baby that
could not survive
inside me, that
tore us apart.
A miscarriage
of our love,
our dreams,
our future.
Vanished.
And still I
remember your
shadow as
you walked out
the door.
Benjamin.
