The Sparsity of Sand

A black cat sits on a broken stone pedestal in a barren, desolate landscape under a gray sky. Two birds fly in the distance. TRL monogram is etched into the corner.

Left to haunt while others are present
Only the cats recognize that I’m here.
Necrotic hopes buried in Aphrodite’s tomb,
Even song birds mute into misery.
Leaden, my chest’s chambered millstone sinks.
I never imagined my zone to forever twilight.
Never free, my bosom’s a perpetual prison.
Erasure emanates for eternity.
Sleepless are nights of a nighing soul
Scraping for sand granules of love reciprocated.
