Jussi(?.08.2007-10.07.2024)
Relief that your pain is over
is already skirmishing with the wondering
of if something could have been done
if signs would have been noticed
much earlier. And surely something
could have been, that's the case
with almost all illnesses. Something
could have been done, medicine
much earlier, and this could have
been prolonged, few weeks more,
maybe, of your active presence
in flesh, not this presence
in my thoughts, where you live
now. Still feeling of relief is winning,
but behind the forces of wondering
are advancing the troops of feelings
of loss, grief and sorrow, and I know
they will break through on some near
day, for they always do, and relief
will withdraw, defeated, when
memories of those last days,
especially the last terrible hours,
is withered with the leaves of fall.
