These things she said,
\nthis life he led,
\nthe lives we lived
\ninside my head,
\nthe dream she dreamed,
\nthe coat he wore,
\nthe snow that fell
\nand fell some more,
\nthis all is that,
\nall that is this,
\nwith nothing left
\nbut a mother’s kiss;
\nthis dream I dreamed,
\na dream before,
\nnothing less,
\nbut something more.
