VERONICA: a beautiful poem

Veronica

They tell us this has nothing to do with us.
They say we aren't you.
But we know better.

We are experiencing our own separation all over again.
We are both inside and outside our own bodies.
Watching.
Feeling.

Projection, they say.
Reaction, I say.

It is happening again.
It is happening to you.
It is happening to us.

It is happening again
And we can't do anything to stop it.

The only difference is that this time
We have not only our cries but also
Our words.

Veronica,
We
Bear
Witness.
