What can anyone say
to make sense of it?
“God takes his own”
and “the good die young”
in idiot recompense for loss
we do not understand,
dare not accept
and cannot reconcile
in an ordinary world
that keeps on spinning,
though we are hurled
in an abyss of duties
fraught with danger
for our fragile hearts,
which bleed
as innocence departs,
taking with it all
our certainty and youth
and everything we took
from you as truth.
