Thousand of miles away


A smile 

rebounded in your eyes,

Happy I left away any mile

The doctors could say no lies.

 

My healthy brother I left

Cross the border in a plane

something felt bereft 

a call  that seemed only mundane

 

a crack in the foundations of the heart

a call that changed my view

death was the sole insignificat part

my directionality left without a single clue

 

who shalt I blame

impotent in my home

the death with such fame

concocted a dome

 

a dome mounted upon a structure of decaying vitality 

made of evenly sized pieces of dissaray 

there was no room for calamity,

yet............................. what could one do a thousand miles away?
