An Ode To Parting Poem by L.B. Temuco

An Ode To Parting



You offered me fleetingly
your friendship
your inexhaustible eyes
your sweet smile
which tasted like honey on my lips
And leaving
I turn to see
the cold stones of heaven
a mirror full of the glass wings of light
and your fires sinking in the sea
like a wound I have bathed

I am grateful, at least, for having bled like this.
