Twelve Days Later

Blue sky rains down
Green haze,
Death gown
Can’t breathe
So slow
This time
So low
Leave me inside
Way down
Flood tide

Real skin
Red life
White veins
Grief lies
Somewhere dreams rest
Deep ground
Loved, blessed
Silent days borne
He lay free, gone

Blue sky rains down
Gold days
Breath bound
Can’t feel
So slow
This time let go
Keep him inside
Glowing
Free, light
