John Bryan
The Little Death

Well, they
( whoever THEY are )
say
( I've never actually HEARD them )
that there is
a perfect someone
for everyone in
the world.

I found mine.

She lived in
13th Century Iceland
and although
we didn't say much
to each other
when I finally met her, I did

carve

my name
next to hers
on her tombstone
