Through & Over

by Poet on the Piano   Apr 6, 2011


I knew you first as a whisper
among brisk, unsettled air,
constricting space in my heart
you came to change and prepare.

After death became your debt,
it was impossible to continue.
To stay calm at the sunset
and watch you fall for hours.

I understand you last as an echo
making your voice spoken,
tides and lulling rush by
as a new memory is woken.

You showed me depth of dreams
how to remember and fly,
beyond unstopping streams
your face is lifted up to me.

    This is a really uplifting piece. It has faith and signs that we all eventually learn and heal from life. Your flow was excellent in this so don't worry about it so much. Lovely use of words and it holds a comforting message. Brilliant write : )
