Brown
She slowly vanished
Into the air
A billion little particles
But I don't know where
I screamed out in warning
But I stopped myself
Mid-sentence
I stopped myself from mourning
Though I haven't seen her since
Sometimes she appears in my mind
Her silence gets louder
Her blood gets browner
As I lose track of time
I follow her down through the orange forest
Secrets, whispers, disconnected
Sighs
Emanate a never-ending chorus
She leads me to the bridge as I start to cry
She doesn't turn around
Does she know I'm here?
She jumps into a sea, doesn't make
A sound
Just like that I watch her disappear
Her clothes, once white
Float to the surface of the water
Now a deep brown
And just like they
I have forgotten what I
Call her

This poem is about about religion and spiritualty. I wrote it to be very open to interpretation because the woman described in the poem represents everything I believe in and so would be interpretted differently by everyone based on personal beliefs and views.
