    And on the Curve of Forgetting

    There is nothing more Valid than time wasted

    All of the energies lost and found in spending it

    On absolutely nothing and nowhere

    Not moving and running all at the same time

    And even after all of the mediocrity

    Somewhere within the confines of catastrophic imperfections

    There lies an untapped reservoir of still

    A vessel that connects to great and powerful wonders

    This is the impulse that gives life a beat

    That is the true defined rhythm of existence

    Beautiful movement in all its fluidity

    ….Somewhere standing alone and unloved

    There was you in the midst

    My catastrophe sweeping away debris like the motions of God

    And for a time, my tears were spilled into your hand

    My dearest vessel

    And I was connected to something more than tragedy

    Something braver than my own insecurities

    With you I would fly

    From the richness of your laughter

    I could smile

    The extension of your grace

    I was alive

    From the bounty of your spirit

    I was free

    Within you I was uninhibited

    There was nothing to hold me back

    And now neither will there be for you

    In my selfish haste,

    I was eager to have you stay

    Because my mortal mind could never comprehend your sudden departure

    And Gods need for you there

    In a space and time that perceives no limits

    And exceeds all bounds

    Your works were greater than this life

    And to have known you at all

    I am humbled

    Counting the days, the seconds, and the memories

    Time won’t allow me to forget or ignore the silence that fell between us

    I miss you more than words now

    But was angry and hurt then

    Too much time slipped away

    And now that you’re gone, there is no way to make it right

    I could rearrange the entire alphabet to put letters that could attempt to create something meaningful

    But none will do

    You are a beautiful woman

    And you were a work of fine art all your own

    An extended masterpiece

    A breathtaking reflection of Gods glory

    That lit up the world

    And I am grateful

    One of the sweetest, dearest creatures I had ever known

    I will carry you with me in my heart forever

    Farewell my love

    In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

    Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
