Tragedy Selfsame Eyes Poem by Terence George Craddock

Tragedy Selfsame Eyes

Rating: 5.0


chance encounters
encounters tragic
encounters painful
encounters masked

with polite conversations
meeting remembered relatives
relatives of lost beloved
unrequited love not returned

polite conversation
kind polite words
asking after everyone else

asking after the one loved lost
brilliantly tragically concluded
with looks that made miserable

because a sibling has
piercing haunting transfixing
pain the selfsame eyes
