The Beacon
We Who Remain
Amelie Tonoyan
Tomorrow I shall leave -
Bags of everything I've ever known.
And yet today you remain
Watching as I wave from the back.
​
The quiet has caught my throat
And flickers my futility -
I am no longer sure what to do
As you still remain
Waiting as I read from towers.
​
It is lonely without the blood
That we've known.
​
You draw the curtains
As you did yesterday
And we forever remain
Beyond the blue that separates.
