Xavier
In a spartan cafe',
redeemed by our needs,
don’t make me trade,
a blonde bright lit home,
for an invisible enemy,
where shadows climb walls,
in the falling rain,
we reel at the infirmary,
an echo of empty cradles,
a doctor's sad tone,
more than we can ever be,
love worn and gone,
on hospital alleyways,
the absence of a heartbeat,
like a dismal train,
pray at St Peter’s dome,
loss brings no certainty,
just whistles forlorn,
over the sea.
