lather my world with
your presence eternally
and settle for me

and I'll settle my
debt with you any way you want
with anything you want

-

2(6) words
can make or break
can stir or settle
a grieving heart

-

parting with you
is the most painful thing
ill ever experience

-

through the ashes
past the smoke
a beam of light
not quite like fire
captures my attention

somehow it coddles my lungs
and gives me sight
that i owe my life to
in this murky atmosphere

i will never take my eyes off it
no matter how many times life tries to blindfold me
i will never look back again
i wont risk falling down the same old cycle

hope is what keeps us going.
