“You will find me
in the flicker of dying bulbs,
in the rustle of sleepless winds,
in the corridor's caged whispers,
in the door's slow-blooming creak,
in the wail of distant gales,
in night's ink-thick hollows,
in the silver hush of anklets,
in each bead trembling on an orphaned necklace-
for even after I am gone,
your fear will keep me breathing
everywhere light forgets to look.”
