Rosary Of Reasons

A litany,
A mantra,
A rosary
Of reasons.
Security,
Remember?
Identity
and depth.
Don't forget
the things
he lacked,
the things
he didn't see
in you.
Close your eyes to his eyes and his arms and his silence and his self and
Remember.
Repeat.
A litany,
A mantra,
A rosary
of reasons.
Each bead
another breath,
another minute,
another step
not in his
direction.
