PROMETHEUS by Maria Fokas

Don’t turn away from life

I hear the whisper of your voice

In the footsteps that I take

I rage and rage…

But it makes no difference either way

Your eyes…smile…laugh… and touch

In the silence between the beatings of my heart

It will always be there

This I promise you my beloved friend:

That in the absence of you

I will remember you the most

What we had and the words that we spoke

I know now – I did discover the impossible

Your soul simply a reflection of mine

First raw and naive

And now the reason I am free
