Your ears are not deaf
yet we know not if you hear
our pleads for you to know
that you are loved.

Pestilence has come and left;
you have disappeared.
Some disease bestowing
the things hell is made of.

Eyes locked to the ceiling
begging anyone for anything:
help, death, an end
without your awareness.

There is no healing
just offering you to wings.
Whether to fall or ascend
the limbo first must perish.
