Epilogue

Penultimate Chapter in Amelia's life.

Chapter 22
Everything happened really quickly after that.
Kirsty and I screamed, “Ruby!” simultaneously, and rushed over to the edge, peering over, trying to see her in the pitch black.

Two teen gangs, one Vespa, a petrol-soaked rag ... and did I mention the crows

i'm not there yet, but I will be soon...
Glad I got this one off my chest...

Taxi cab shimmer in
the street light glow
of a Saturday night,
spray painted people
like burnt hollow flames
licking at the curve
of a crumbling pavement,
the language of languid sirens

“To walk in nature as Wordsworth; did,
To see the pensive stars in there grid
A Moon-white-ice-crimped lake
The hilltops burning, slowly; opaque
Ashen as autumns, burnished, reds

When I think about what could have been
When I think about what I've missed,
When I think, I see your face.
To see your face, To hear your voice and to read your words,

There wasn't a lot of chance getting back to sleep after that call. It turned into one of those fights with the sheets as they grew warm and tangled.
