Especially Where You’re Concerned
—on a thought of Maurice Sendak
I’ll sob my way to the grave
as the world disappears one friend at a time,
but especially where you’re concerned,
the old man said.
So, there is a bit of joy
in the thought of leaving first
since I won’t have to sob
until the end of time
at the loss of you
