she said it with a pound to the chest
as she regretted every effort
when she found it was death
door knocking from the sound of the flesh
on the ground he was left in soaked cotton
God has counted his breath
and now He got him on a mountain of steps
with the mouths of his friends
saying mom where did he go and how will we live?
It’s an hour like this you can’t prepare for
ordering flowers and gifts he wont be there for
“I’m a basket case,” she say
while in a casket case he lay
Love in a plastic kiss he fades away
into the depths of the earth
with the rest of his birth
he has left us at church
It’s the best and the worst
when singing to the blessed and the cursed
these are the things that have left us hurt
hands bursted veins mans words cant skirt the pain
her plans burn in reverse the blame gets rehearsed
in exchanging eyes she wonders
if she could have changed his mind
stained windows stood and framed a sky
that changed little couldn’t name the time
the remaining cry
Can you remember the rain?
Under the skies broken thunder when her eyes open
wondering how someone inside could find hope
when her mind can barley cope with the understanding
scary because her time was as close as his
when the underhanded reached for her
funny how he would speak for her
money was only an object
when running streaks tore her nose lining
shed doze off with no whining
wake up to the sound of blow coughing
and Ghost rhyming
most of the time when people seek to find their life force
Its just before the reaper finds them
beaten by the white horse
or leaking from the eyes or sleeping with a white cross
or weakened when they realize its their time for lights off
because then the mics off and there is no performing
and he writes you off with no warning
except for the rain that will fall from the cloud
that is called to your brow to remind you of the day
at his grave when you swore you would change
and all of the pain withdraws that will call you again
will be drawn into an autumns wind
knowing he sold his life for it but you never bought in
