you tree limb bent out from the others, you collapsing of the chest as everyone laughs, you mid-july broken ceiling fan you beautiful, stand out empty picture frame - where a family should be. that earthquake mother, that tectonic plate father, you poor, caught-in-the-debris, scar on the head survivor you valley of flowers, those volcanic eruption grandparents, you forgotten beauty you ash risen lover, you missing puzzle piece, you faded photograph you home, you paradise, you safe haven you backseat confession, you laying on the tile floor sleep, you moonlit slow dance you tender, divine lover, you unbroken hope

you, ash risen lover
you tree limb bent out from the others, you collapsing of the chest as everyone laughs, you mid-july broken ceiling fan you beautiful, stand out empty picture frame - where a family should be. that earthquake mother, that tectonic plate father, you poor, caught-in-the-debris, scar on the head survivor you valley of flowers, those volcanic eruption grandparents, you forgotten beauty you ash risen lover, you missing puzzle piece, you faded photograph you home, you paradise, you safe haven you backseat confession, you laying on the tile floor sleep, you moonlit slow dance you tender, divine lover, you unbroken hope
