100 Words on Love, by Cabot O’Callaghan
–
Her time here is tenuous.
It is undeniable.
It stares at us only inches from our faces.
She lives her life in past tense now.
The fond memories are her guides.
Death’s topic slips into our conversations
When we speak of the future.
I love you, mom. I will walk with you and hold the door open.
