Time goes on, people touch and then they're gone...but family always finds their way back.
A Sister Found


Aging accusations became brittle with time

Siphoning the last of my stubborn resolve
Into the abysmal void where what matters not is
Silenced, forever.
Time is touted as the healer of all pain, but
Everyone knows it takes more.
Reaching out from your fractured world, shaking the family tree, you

Forced me forward, frightened, until the gap between us snapped shut and
Order returned to the universe in my heart.
Unwritten chapters await our pen; across the first pristine page I write:
Never, ever again will I accept a day of my life
Devoid of your precious light.

Author's Note: This Christmas season, I reconnected with the subject of this poem, written two years ago:

 A Sister Lost Open in new Window. (E)
Acrostic from a broken heart
