Past Tense Poem by Joan Xie

Past Tense

Rating: 5.0


Your image was carried off
by a breeze without much struggle.

Your place was stolen by a burning candle
in a mirrored dark tunnel.

I reached out.
I furrowed the field of memory.

How did I come back with a handful of ashes.
Even my regret was sobbing in the past tense.
