Out of death

Out of death

Small forlorn

Within me you lie

A beacon

Of past lights

Wavering in certainties

Like a flame’s flicker

 

Out of reach

High above my skies

You fly free

Dancing ghost

A party in search of host

Quiet rejoicing

 

Within breath

Shivering vibrant

You exhale

I inhale

Flooded continuity

Our cycle of life

 

Out of death

You sway in confines

Wavering

Wandering

Between light hope dark despair

Journeys in spirals

 

Within speech

You articulate

Your being

Solemn truths

This world cascade of mourning

For your grey demise

 

Out of mind

Within core of heart

You flutter

Butterfly

The force of fragility

Emblem of freedom
