so much I'll miss

when I'm no longer here--

so much of it

gone in

the instant of its happening--

and all of it

part of my being

just from it

happening to me--

so if this is so

then I do possess it all

and all this melancholy's

merely a delusion of perspective

and a forgetting

of reality--

so it will be

when I awaken from this life

these sad confusions

will at last be

something

I'll not much miss--
