Preservation

The last time
I saw you I saw
you were not here.

Your body, mostly broken
eyes, mostly closed
or you stare, somewhere.

I wonder where you've gone
but then start seeing you, all in one.
Baby, boy, man, father, but no longer as victim.

I stare back at you
my mind leaving the room
I run back into our life, to preserve you.
