the ground of black marble and stardust crumble at dawn
blue planets spinning in the sky slow as a burning ball rises again
somewhere time stopped being felt, and now the minutes are all but gone
and I’ve never felt so far from heaven
ears ready to hear the trill signaling your lavender-laced breath
with words of sweet wisdom and ponders to all the unknown
the reassurances that there truly is no death
that you tread the place where all of our ancestors go
i would look up and see pink flames settling on the horizon
and now it’s like it is dark all day
i lost my connection to any spiritual or physical realm without realizing
the birds flock when no ones around, but wings never stay
it’s so loud in this new dark world
in a silence that is no longer filled by you
heat rises and the rising asphalt curls
and whatever red pills I took return to blue
if the heart slips into the halls of an empty white space
and there’s no way to get back to the past
i hope you come find me, and never go away
so i could join you in forever at last
Love always,
Chayle
