the shape of what you lived
by theuglyearring
You think of lands you journeyed through,
of paintings and a dress once worn
by a woman you never found again.
And suddenly you know: that was enough.
You rise and there appears before you
in all its longings and hesitations
the shape of what you lived.
painting: picasso’s seated nude woman
poem: remembering, rainer maria rilke
