I tried to quickly pass
in order to avoid the wreckage
You were shipwrecked outside a grocery store
washed up, delivered by a sudden squall
You sat atop a ***** crumpled duffle
I met your sullen, soulful eyes
they spoke harsh truths, not denied
I gave you groceries, you reached for my hand,
thinking me your mother, your sister, a friend
Leaving I turned to see your face
my heart dropped anchor,
sunk by such weight

A spirit so peaceful embracing life
A breathe of serenity as quiet beauty meditates the earth
Shadows flow together focusing on wisdom
Inhaling the wind as it soar’s into a winding garden
A fresh tranquil soul soothingly grasping my hand
Demise is speaking to me oh so openly
Time and light that is perfectly white
The scent of myself passes me by
I exhale for a moment
Remembering the sullen compassion that whispers in the sky
Yelling out to me asking why
