NOT TO FORGET YOU

There stands death.
A bluish distillate in a cup without a saucer.
Such a strange place to find a cup
balanced on the back of a hand~
A shooting star that fell into and from my eyes
sparkles there~
~not to forget you
~to endure.

The emptiness of death is very surreal.....but I like your imagery too.....finding a bluish distillate which really begs further questions....interested what it could be....
