A Letter For A Deceased Mother
Dear Mother,
A glance at my calendar, much to my distress,
right now these feelings, I must confess.
It's Mother's Day once again
and my heart is filled with sorrow, that may never mend.
I'm trying to make it through today without tears
this year, just like all the rest of the years.
I sit here to dwell and morn
with what once was had, has now been forever torn.
This day never ceases to remind me how I'm without
and fills me with an overflowing doubt.
Makes me regret how little the days with you were spent
and I ponder where all those precious memories could have went.
If only I knew back then what I know now
and my life, the knowledge,
We went for a walk on that cloudy day
Filling each other with joy and laughter
That was the way it had always been
I finally found the connection I was after
And all my reservations melted away
If only I knew what was to come thereafter
Or how I’d be haunted by your grin
My heart sure was easy for you to shatter
Trying to make sense of our demise
Only led me to despise you even more
I am done trying to pick up the pieces
I’d rather smash them into the wall
And stand there completely speechless
As I watch the blood fall from my hands
Maybe then my only weakness will be
Having the emotional capacity of a machine
You stopped retur
You’re nothing but a shooting star
Searching for a new destination
Don’t let yourself go too far
Or you’ll fade into oblivion
Comfort is an orbiting satellite
That dances in your gravitational pull
Pain is the vast emptiness of space
Confining you to a universe of isolation
It’s better to burn out than fade away
But it looks like you’ve done both already
Hiding behind a constellation of lies
Will lead to your inevitable demise
The master of disguise has been exposed
As a miserable and untalented fraud
Who thought they wielded remarkable power
Well, heed this warning and duck for cover
I’ve got a supernov
Your head keeps drooping down
I can’t change your damaged mind
You love wearing that heavy crown
Even when the cause has already died
The iron castle has eroded away
Your past lies in the lukewarm ashes
Better break out that broken shovel
I never was a fan
Of the misogynistic man
He’s better off dead
Than controlling anyone
That faulty DNA
Has reached its dying day
Take those fake tears
Right to your frozen grave
The citizens rejoice
At your silenced voice
Say goodbye my bitter
Black juniper
Black juniper
Black juniper
Your face says a thousand faulty words
Each one is more volatile than the last
Any chance you had flew with th
The sunrise shimmers in the dark
Remember this December eve
The fire burns bright, divides you whole
Yet still you shiver at the sparks
You trembled as the embers gleamed
Through the middle of your soul
Auroral galaxies disappear
Just giving way to another dawn
A boreal fantasy—yet you fear
Tell me what lurks, and tell me what hides
What esoteric secret’s inside?
Where the wolves cross the mountains
And the horses the fields
Tell me, what could you yield?
I see you kneeling in the rain
Your hold is on the coldest things
Can you believe where you belong?
I know you feel it’s all the same
So bold you are as you hold the str
Someone lead me to the light
I can’t hear a single sound
Except for the misery inside
As I slam into the ground
This is my sweet surrender
Time helps the pain subside
Until it stops being your guide
The shadows are on the prowl
Hidden under see-through cowls
I’ve shared the truth too many times
And now no one will believe the lie
Destruction is part of life
Keep looking calmly ahead
This cycle is beginning again
Surrender to the archer
Chaos is ready to feast
You’ll never find Electra
Or the hounds of Diana
The quicksand has dried
Come out of that hole
Rabbits don’t know reality
The rain is falling down
It can kill without sound
A trio of talons is hunting
With eyes like heat censors
You want to make a sacrifice
Think it will attract a stag
Well, the tides have dissolved
The marble gates are sealed
Datura arrows will search
Until your moonbeam dims
Blood is on your hands
No elixir can absorb it
You’re only gladiolus
Wilted in the sea cave
He poked at your brain
Now you’ll die insane
Delphi has vanished
A gavel cries in agon
Can you hear me across this empty space?
Will you still recognize this weary face?
Has time erased every ounce of memories?
Or have the tides returned some old clarity?
Where did that unbreakable bond run off to?
Your inviting smile is only a cruel mirage
Everything changed when you disappeared
I alone must escape this invisible barrage
There’s no turning back from this demise
You keep vanishing before my very eyes
All those happy days are locked away
Behind an old door that bears your name
They’ll never be able to roam free again
You’re the one who holds the key within
The warm breeze feels so lifeless
Now that it does
Blue bird
Turn around
Look right at me
Don’t hit the ground
Stop hiding in the dragon tree
Give me your trembling hand
Your echoes bounce in both my heads
I can hear you chewing mustard seeds
A few are still hanging around the dead weeds
Jack and Jill came running from a lecture
They said “The police found a handwritten letter.”
It read “Without me your life will be better.”
Those were the last seven words from Fletcher
An epiphany darted out of the bad weather
That’s all he wanted to say
That’s all he needed to say
All the lakes are still concrete swamps
My broken feet keep their line of stomps
I&
I’ll close your eyes, my little sparrow
You’ll fly even higher come tomorrow
All your fears will turn to lonely ashes
You’ll be dancing in the world of wishes
Don’t try to turn around and reach me
You don’t belong here anymore, lovely
The crowds will remember your name
All they want is a piece of your fame
Tears will be shed on your new grave
Those lost souls shall never change
Once you’re gone there’s no final recital
Once you’re gone there is no revival
You can’t replicate the one true original
Any attempts are extremely artificial
An empty space will forever fill the void
Your heart w
