lilacs do not last
though they break easily from the branch
the flowers wilt in the glass on your desk
almost before your eyes
and the reward of their fragrance is
not enough to
cover the loss

when things become impossible
come find me
I won’t fix the things
I will take you and run
laughing
hand in hand
through the long green meadow past the woods
toward summer
