Do not ask me to live.
You alone...
Tiny pretty things
fall like stars...
the silent prayers
that God will never hear...
I was born in the ocean
where sea shells would...
I don’t have space
for grief...
Staring at your beautiful lifeless body
Laid so peacefully in the casket...
You still linger,
Right between the shadows of the folding moon...
I’m not showered in love like the others
Even when I put my best efforts into you...
You don't deserve flairs of color
Or talented splashes on canvas...
I crumble just like the walls of an unkept castle
Untouched, unnoticed by civilization for years...
I’m staring
Into the eyes...
You said you'd run along,
then you didn't...
