nature abhors vacuum scientists tell
perhaps explaining how it feels
to stumble onto a place where her face
once stood prominent,
along with her bits of wisdom
all gone sucked into some
black hole of emotion
I still can't explain
the blank page from
which
I can only retrace
shapes from memory
and even these imperfectly
confusing what was
with what I wished would be
still hoping for some miraculous Resurrection
I come back to it
again and again
seeing nothing except what I bring to it
the unfulfilled
desires
the intensity of
forgiveness and pain
the shadows that hide
in the depths of space
many many light years
between what was
and what might have
been
