waiting as I always do
time seems to be blue
white and clear as the tears I cry
and I wonder why my sister why
Thank you for holding me up
when those around lay still
thank you for moving my movement
high and up till the walls no longer cave in.
You sit and I stand and we look with eyes
turned down, holding hands and heads held back and twined.
I comfort my legs with things that i have found, and I lay and I wait till I die.
but then you surprise me
as you wrap arms so wide and then so tight
I scream and shout .. let me go
as you climb for the sky
I end up on the floor below scouring and scamping for the blue
and as the white and clear tears fall from the sky, my sister stands so still so still
its raining.
oh my sister I do love you
