Not Long Left - The one that got away

And now father
in this passive
state of acceptance
I can finnally feel
what you felt.

The wedding pictures
that sit neatly upon the
top of the piano
seem so different now.
It wasn't the white of
her dress that made you frown.

Above you the figure
on the wooden crucifix
was not the only one
crying regret.

Not Long Left
