Ashes to Ashes
Of and from the earth
I feel bound in the dust
I lose you to ashes
Its frightening
But you need to see
souls soar upward
please
I can't bear
your eyes always downcast
stormy waters
where until now
I have seen
clear calm seas
inside you
Your oceans touch my shores
and mix together
muddled soil in which we sink.
