I Held Her

I Held Her

I Held Her: Handwritten in pencil February 2006

I held her
In the night
While she shuddered and cried
“It isn’t fair” she said
And I remembered thinking
Nothing ever is
I held her
In my heart
All that spring
Smoke stacks belched sooty vermin
On wet soil
And my filthy black snow soul melted
In corners the sun never touched
And in the depths her heart
As if she had never been touched
Pain knelt before me
Like a closed corner tavern
In faces I'd never seen
Scarred by my so called love
Where dirty cobwebs
Saw half lidded eyes and dusty flecks
In our mourning morning sun
Baking in stale<b> beer </font></b>and despair.
You could smell defeat
In the sticky dingy carpet
And nicotine stained walls.
