in the morning, it was a kiss that sang
a harsh brush of rock against rock
and the sound of a hurricanein the evening, it was a peaceful death
a paved road with no turns
and the acceptance of lossat midnight, it was a lark with no voice
a branching of veins on a thousand leaves
and liquid moonlightit is roman numerals
songs beyond mountains and people who believe in you
it is thick, scratchy blankets and a closing of eyes
it is locked closets and open windows, sheets over mirrors and crying into early morning soilit is fingers clutching at bedsheets
an untimely disintegration of feelings you thought would last foreverit is solitude sprinkled like ashes across the earth
gold mines and strawberry sunlight
it is by your side wherever you gostanding shadowless at every time of day
keep it safe
