The Loss and The Wish

“The Loss and The Wish” by Rashad Haughton, August 25 2022…


 

The Loss and The Wish

A secret thought on the wind
Grabs the eyelash from my finger.
A small piece of me
In exchange for a miracle.
I wonder about that place,
Where the wind takes it;
Beyond this earth, the shimmer
Of the stars and the hum at the center
Of the universe.
I dream it arrives,
Floating down to rest
On the finger of an angel.
I know it’s you…waiting for me.
