E. Hughes, from "My Mother at Twenty-One"
you were a touch of lips that breathed air into my stuttering lungs an arm around my shoulders that sparked my fluttering heart a first-aid kit stitching my anger back together a cool press of fingers swiping gentle against the fever and then you were the whisper of a bullet guarding my six the glint of a sniper scope that struck hope, not fear the heavy march of boots always right behind mine
it was you. it was you. it was always you.
and i always knew i would have died a hundred times over without you.
you are echoes in the empty chambers of my heart screams in the air that clamour in my lungs a nightmare repeating like a skipping record you are still seventy years of empty spaces a ghost that still lives and breathes and screams a memory that lingers in my every footstep
i never did learn how to live without you.
and i should have known when my heart stubbornly kept on beating that you were not gone.
