For All This Time

A door is what a dog is perpetually on the wrong side of,
And I can hear the birds of woe.
This party is for those whose expectation is postponed, making their heart sick.
I study atlases and cirrus paths, in search of traces of it, of you.
All my stories are about being left, all yours about leaving.
It wasn’t a question of a perfect fit.
After all this time?
Always.

In memoriam of Alan Rickman

This is a "Found" poem, made of many pieces of prose I have found.
