“Taiga”
Jan 23, 2023

--

I dreamt
I saw you once more
Sunburnt
Tears rimming your eyes
Saying, “Sorry…”
As we turned to watch on film
A story
I’d seen you in before
But could not recall
And when I turned to ask
Your name
You were gone

Unlisted

“Taiga”

Why do I write? Perhaps in order not to go mad. Or, on the contrary, to touch the bottom of my madness. - E. Wiesel
