breach

blown up
like something just
went off
a stark, sharp flash
and then
gone
brain vacant
lights out but you're out
no doubt
way past the pout
past the whinning
far gone down that route
strange chance that i met you
that words passed our mouths
incisive that flash so inviting
o'erwhelming the shockwave, the jolt
and then silence,
awareness
dumbfounded and daunted
by sheer sudden sadness
rain on the rooftops
and then time stopped
