Cold By Winter Eulogy For An Angel Passed
She'll sleep on the stars
Under the burning tails of comets
Her eyes fused to my own
Through blur of ashened skin
Words tore right through my heart
Glass words bled a shooting star
Her ashes back to the earth
Like waves braking on the rocks
Light the sky with your heart though ceased its beating
At night the ocean and the sky blend
At night the ocean and the sky blend
An audible pain
And there you stand
Betrayed by skin deep within her
Refusal to function nigh and each breathe begged for a glimpse of uncoloured eyes
To orbit one more cycle severed the cord that night
Watching the wound menstruate
And swallow her life
At night the sky blends into the ocean
Scatter the ashes in remembrance
Float a trail of wanton regret caressing the rocks with each wave
For every stolen moment every embrace kindred flesh to commemorate in that alive standing still in memory of you
Watching the wound menstruate her resistance drained her of determination while life rendered her blind and my eyes are down turned betray the need to cry tears for the sunrise ignore her plea for one more day
Sever the cord, kill the feeling, know thy pain
Light the sky with your heart, breathe the stars, your fire and blood will burn in his veins, the labour of our discontent has no grave it will not lie, regret is overcome as is grief, the cycle meets its point of origin
And there you smile
