Finality

When I place my hand on your urn,
all I feel is total silence,
all I hear is total emptiness.
Ashes.
You promised you would visit me!
Where are you?
Where have you gone?
Come back to me and soon!
I cannot bear this life without you.
Each moment is a moment of pain.
Of suffering like the sunset suffers the onslought of the night!
Nothingness and endless wondering are my companions.
Your memories surround me like a LIttle Big Horn.
Long sought after, you remain just beyond my reach.
Let me touch you just one of these reaches.
Let us walk again down the many perfect beaches.
Palm-lined, they beckon us.

Come, together we will seal eternity with our steps.
