Of Ebony; for Katie

Sorry this post doesn't seem so .... cheery... was just a sudden random thought as I read something a friend wrote...I haven't talked to them since I moved without saying goodbye :-( alas, my fault.

I was just relating this...stupidity I can't take back... to a friend, then it suddenly struck me, we design our own crosses, so to speak:

I designed my own cross:
Loss of friendship heavy as ebony,
Details carved intricately, I can never forget,
Memories glow as a lacquer, brightness burns the eyes.
I want to throw it from me, but then I can't let it go....

And so I carry you always with me, my cross.
