I cried yesterday.

Unexpected tears that stopped conversation
and forced eyes to look away in embaressment.

I cried yesterday.

Big, fat, silent drops of loss and anger.
Grief unexpected and hidden deep amongst refued memories.

I cried yesterday.

I cried because fear had kept me distant.
I cried because cancer had

one, two, three, four and one more time stolen from me.
I cried because I had not told those who loved you
that I loved you too.

I cried because I miss you.
Because we talked so long last summer and you understood.
I cried because I am diminished by the absence of your friendship.

I cried yesterday for you.
And for myself.
