ALMOST LOST YOU
Wading in time
I heard the children's voices
near the shore. I thought
we'd almost lost you.
I remember in the fog
when your lover told me
he'd never give you up.
He looked so hurt
when I told him that I was
speaking to him from the future
and he'd already lost.
I can feel the darkness. It comes
upon you like water. Crawls up
your legs into your lungs. Death
is just another word for drowning.
