I see
How much bravery
It takes
For you
To love
When you know
So intimately
How demolished
Your heart
Will be
At the very hint
Of loss
I know
You believe
Down to your toes
That your home
Is to be
Alone
And you are
Just waiting
For the dinner bell
To ring
To break this illusion
Of life with love
And bring
You back
To your
Cold
Old
Home
I can try
To tell you different
But my words
Feel hollow
For you
Are my core
And I see
You
Do not
Believe
So little one
We must
Trust
Our source
Our creator
Our momma
Our mommas momma
Our mommas mommas momma
And let go
Let go
Of the walls
Of this tiny home
We know
In our toes
And let
Her arms
Be our new home
Never alone
Never alone
Yes humans
And love
And loss
Beautiful mess
Porcupine
Quills
Still
Pierce our heart
But now
We know
When we cry out
When the black hole
Of our past
Sings siren songs
To our soul
We know
She is here
In the pain
And overwhelm
And now
We never
Have to be
Alone
Again
Amen
