The heaviest pools, Created in midnight baths Mixed well with mermaid tears Washed clear, By sunrise Salty prisons released as prisms

A Final Wish.
Sometimes my grief is hard because I’m not a religious person, but I know you were. You believed in God, Heaven, and Hell. I can only believe that your soul went to a better place, but I also want to believe that you went to the place you dreamt of and believed in. I want to believe that everything you ever believed in was true and that you are walking streets of gold with your Savior, whom you loved. I want to believe it so badly it hurts.

the way things are, now
I still dream of sun-kissed bricks under bare feet Of hot soup on the stove Of origami books on your kitchen table Of your splayed arms, open like a bird’s wings

Challenge of Forgiveness Today feels odd, Like nothing ever happened, Even though my guard still feels like it might be up.
