Grief Unbelonging
Grief unbelonging to me keeps my eyes open tonight
Paints the air something surreal
Whispers the word remember
And I do
I remember
Something serial
In the elbow-crook of her smile
Sugared futures promising lifetimes of a mother's love
Her voice tickles my ear-drums
And air drums against my skull
The pressure is deafening
I mourn the loss rather than the life
I mourn what could have been
People die everyday they tell me
Hearts slow to the pace of a dripping tap and then nothing at all
Paints the air something surreal
Whispers the word remember
And I do
I remember
Something serial
In the elbow-crook of her smile
Sugared futures promising lifetimes of a mother's love
Her voice tickles my ear-drums
And air drums against my skull
The pressure is deafening
I mourn the loss rather than the life
I mourn what could have been
People die everyday they tell me
Hearts slow to the pace of a dripping tap and then nothing at all
