Shells

Between my tears

Life’s arrears

Stand tall

As I duck down

In shame

Guilt

Loss

But what is

The future

Without

The past

What is

The past

Without you

Regrets

Are wishes

Dandelion seeds

Of truth

But purpose

Is here

And now

So what

Are we being told

In the wake

Of devastation

What is the wish

We fulfill

For her
