There was a time
time there was
when I knew those people well
That time has passed
and they have passed
to that other place
that no one knows
but everyone goes
where there are no words
only memories
regrets, remorse
and impotence
I listen to them
in their sleep
moaning sounds
wails and tears
it's hard to hear
but I have no choice
their lives are in my heart and soul
and time does not soften
the empty space
that once they filled
