A heart that’s full,
But also heavy.
A hand that shakes,
But somehow steady.
Falling apart,
Then coming together,
A push and pull,
An unbreakable tether.
A love unrelenting,
A sorrow so great.
A question of why,
An answer of fate.
Remembered forever,
Forgotten you’re not,
An eternal mark,
In life’s great plot.
Just as one’s given,
Another is took.
A tale so common,
It belongs in a book.
I wish she had met you,
She’d giggle and cheer,
But I feel you around,
So I’ve nothing to fear.
Your door has closed,
So hers could be open.
I’ll love you forever,
And more words unspoken....

Violence Begets
"Any last words, cowboy?" "None you'd understand, sodbuster." "Funny. That's Marshall Sodbuster to you. But I meant some last nugget that would help us in the adjudication of the myriad offenses counted against you and your gang. I wasn't asking for penitence."
