How she stumbles

How she stumbles over the shadow of the moon
her old tracks heaving in the tree branches
her nocturnal wedding gown bleeding silently 
in a dawn of things never said

I pick up the tense words
smell the scent of vulnerable and alone
carry the little girl in the inside pocket of my vest
save and secure, free to cry everything to shreds
