The Day Does Not Escape Poem by Red Brist

The Day Does Not Escape



The day does not escape
Without a thought of you
Mind tumbling
Wanting
Needing
Holding back
These shoulders of strength
Travel with deep pain

To hold you…

Just the idea
Carries a soreness
An embedded smile
The smell of brown sugar
Lingering far too near
Only to remind me
You are not there
