Lost Friend

If I look like I lost a friend
I did and this loss feels next to kin.
If you could radiograph

You'll see photogenic 
memories across my brain;
Swollen tearducts after 
another 24 hours of 
dry cleaning my eyes;
Lungs deflated by an inch in size;
The density of my heart 
heavily soaked in grief;
Cardiograph uttering a
rhythm of bradycardia beats;
Extra gray matter of emptiness inside; 
Contrast proof of depth love 
no longer by my side.

This year, she truly got it right again…about everyone in office. This loss was unexpected and painful. It was nothing compared to the many deaths of loved ones in the previous year(s). I w...
