(Post Script)

(and I wasn't completely honest, you know,
when you asked me about the words, 
because I think sometimes,
well, I fear sometimes,
that they are gone completely
and it is all over.
But it's not true, 
not at all, 
they are here all the time
telling me their secrets, 
I just have to catch them,
properly,
like fireflies in glass jars,
and when I do,
I think it will all work out
and every
dark
day
will have been worth it.)
