Blue Bell Poem by Nafisah Suleiman

Blue Bell

Blue bell, my second sky; my earthly scar,
a small blue secret stitched into the ribs of the field.

you are almost light, almost touch,
a presence the wind keeps forgetting how to hold.

i stayed too long in the echo of you, learning the shape of absence
as if it were a language.

i am only passing through, a fleeting shadow
in a place that has already forgiven me.
