she did it again
even when she said
she'd die if she did
somehow still survives
if not thrives
moving on as
she has been expecting
one day she was there
doing what she was hired to do
then taken by angels to a safe place
she says where she
can heal
it was a year ago or
so
when she left us
feels as wrong now
as it did then
as if the cosmos press against her
fated to repeat this
at least once more
where did she go
I asked
they don't know
did she quit or was she fired
they still don't know
all this bubbling for some time
till finally it boiled over
another shell
abandoned
or evicted from
leaving behind
baggage
she lacks strength to carry
had she wanted to all
what's Left behind must
stay behind
part of a life she
no longer wishes to live
or can't bear to
not saying where she is going to
only that she is gone
box full of office
possessions
carried out the glass doors
to the cold street
when she goes she is gone
