All I want is a

bed of roses

to hold me

while I sleep for

eternity

My apricot heels

firm against the

casket

Tears that fall

silently

wiping away at

sticky eyelashes

“I thought things like

this only

happened in movies”

A quiet sigh

blowing through the trees

“I wish that

were true”
and as the sun paints the

sky so lovingly

with tangerine oils

They'll breathe their

last goodbyes
