Angel's made
Angel’s made
The ward has gone silent, for another loved one lost, another Angel’s been made at another families cost.
Taken from their loved ones, the Virus struck again, only tears and memories are now that all remains.
Alone and frightened to face their fates alone, family left just waiting, sitting by their phone
Remembering days long gone they think about the past, wondering if their hug again, or was that hug their last.
Thinking of last moments shared, I pray there was no fight, no chance to say “I’m sorry”, no chance to make...

your absence holds no weight
I think of you less
than I probably should
life / death
it's all meaningless in the end
and it's like I can breathe better
in your absence
I hope my children don't grow up
and hate me as much as I hate you
I found a photo of you the other day
the one where I'm 3 years old
frowing
and you're holding me in your arms
...
I didn't throw it out
rip it
burn it
erase it
I'm keeping this one
not for you
I'm keeping this one
for the little girl that hadn't learnt
to...
than I probably should
life / death
it's all meaningless in the end
and it's like I can breathe better
in your absence
I hope my children don't grow up

and you're holding me in your arms

Just Death?
The weird thing about life is that it ends;
for me, for despots, for sinners, for saint,
to the pet cat, to enemies, to friends,
there's no reprieve, no place to lodge complaints...
Just a cold indifferent universe.
Perhaps that's the point, there's justice in death
not in the judicial kind, that's the worst
but that we all get to take one last breath.
I guess there lies equality, that last gasp,
as life fades to a half remembered dream,
thoughts struggle to think, life slips from our grasp
and we are gone as if,...
