Love and Loss

Finding peace in knowing that death is near

When the war is over,

And we’ve conquered all…

Blood is the deep-set foundation of human life

A month that once felt so long now feels okay, like I’m ready to face it.

Ready to take my time and

drift in it the wading of time and water, for it is as fluid as I allow it to be.

I stare at you like the stars,

but no constellation could ever be as bright as you.

The siren sounds rounded out like howls in the moonlight, hiding the dark truths of reality behind

everyday things.

The most hardest-hitting part about death is the expectancy.
