The wind blows freely in the air,
as I sit and relax without a care--
Underneath a huge canopy of silk,
while munching on treats as I drink milk.

It floats and captures the breezy day,
this backyard canopy of yesterday--
Mother left it to me when she passed,
and now the memories always last.

A rainbow streaks across the sky,
catching moments coming from on high--
While I recall my days as a child,
when this canopy flowed, free and wild.

The summer sun is rising above,
as I'm cooled under the canopy of love--
A childlike vision comes into sight,
with mother holding my hand so tight.
Hello?
Can you hear me?
I’m down here...
6 feet under...
Not where I’m suppose to be
You come and visit me
Everyday
I hear you constantly pray
To talk to me again
Hold my hand
Hug me tight
Well I’m right here
I hear everything you say
I cry with you
I laugh with you
I pray with you
I am always with you
Even from 6 feet under
I AM HERE
I pray myself
To heal your pain
Dry your eyes
Help you move on
Don’t forget me
You know where I am
Always in your heart
Forever your friend
I will continue to grow old with you
Until we meet again
When we walk together in the sky
Holding each others hands
For now I stay
6 feet underground
Loving you
Praying with you
Hearing your voice
As I lay in silence
6 feet underground...
Wrote this from the perspective of a person who has passed away and what they see and feel everyday....
I drop a tear,and then another......and the flow begins.
I hold on to my stomach,fingers digging into my things..........I can barely see.
All the hurt eats from the inside.
And ...so I realize........ it's not even the brain,but the heart,that knows where it hurts ......the most.
It can be no great art
without the touch of the heart
I stand here holding on to a pillar that I built with my own heart,my strong will and the weight of my pain.

I look North,and I see her,deep in pain,all curled up, with slit wrists due to your painful words,malice and neglection.

I look further North and I see him, crawling, looking up at you to take him back,mistaking chains for comfort.

What I see in the west is not shocking at all,just look at them,shivering, waiting for your approval,as if their entire existence depends on it.
This one is scared to make a move even......... "You might not like it...."

The east is pathetically familiar.....this again.....living a lie,manifesting your wishes practically by trying to live up to a status you can never reach.You live in the shadows...always whimpering, shaking,scared someone will find out you are not a queen... you don't even have a kingdom,...a home.

I will not bother to look South, nothing surprises me anymore.....all too familiar....a boring repetitive cycle that I struggled to elope from.

I will simply look away,I will not lend a hand,I will not give you words of affirmation........no one did that for me.

I will let you lie on your death bed,.....and learn,even if you will die.
You can't save everyone, you don't always have to be the saviour, sometimes be the observer.

I never want to see her again
I want just one more chance
I can't believe she left me
I need just one last kiss

you are indelible how can i ever tell you this
how can i ever be anyone's
when even in my imagination
you are haunting me
the memories are haunting me
you are just too well tangled in my soul
the memories are just indelible

I found
black dots of mascara falling off your eyelashes today
you’re still perfect
no matter how many times you take the same picture
in the same room
with the same perfectly dolled
face
no matter how dark the sky is behind you
the beauty rays of light
illuminate
your scrumptious lips
There's no one like you and there never will be
