Pieces

42.

A pebble from Positano with an old story
hidden in the back of that decaying box of treasures
accompanied by buttons and sand
things that meant something to someone
reminders of those prayers scattered along the coast
this double life that was so important to you
agendas that remain unfulfilled 
can't be let go, even with a strong wind at the back
begging you to go on, feet still standing like stone
