Anniversary of a Death

He was taken away
by his actions
and hers
And theirs.
Severally and wholly
the plot was written
and he was the one
who was smitten
by the hand of
“crazy random happenstance”.
Yet, we all cried,
as if it
was a surprise
and sang ourselves
to sleep
with haunting lullabies
only to wake
again, refreshed,
and ready
to write another tale
of bittersweet hello
and good-bye.
