aroma of love - Amrita Skye Blaine

[Larry Robinson]

aroma of love

one moment 
substantial, corporeal
the next, 
do you feel their flight?

the shift
from their body 
to your heart
a potent change

the body reels
at the reshaping
the loss immense 
and yet, they are here
their love
in the center 
of your chest
a firefly of light

grief, another
aroma of love
you can no longer
reach out, 
touch them

and yet…
