Slow Death

A lone leaf flutters on 
the withered branches
of my mind…

A  broken memory of 
the withered bark 
that's left behind.

The rotting wood's a reminder 
of what could have been…

If not for time and its 
wretched burials in between.

The tree now, a hollow 
coffin does become…
a rubble of time and
its wretched sum.
