Nothing can be created, without the creator.


He sang a lullaby,

sending me to sleep,

to only wake up,

with no one next me,

 

And I can still hear his heart beat,

the one that will guide me home,

even when my eyes are closed,

and he’s not too close,

 

His words, his death, his hope,

I hope death is just how it was with you,

my lullaby, 

to the only one, that’s you 

 

My lullaby,

sending waves of his heartbeat through my ears

and I knew this was exactly how we would meet.

I could hear my death, my him, my home,

calling me.

 

He said she can’t come to me so soon,

but death doesn’t repeat,

when my lullaby is calling me home,

to dance with the only one,

who has always been; my home, 

my hope, my eyes,

My nose, my life, my skin and my bones.


The author's comments:

This piece was written as someone whose never experienced the love from someone in the emotionally, vulnerable way, but I feel as if I’m closer to feeling death from someone that never met, the feeling of how I would imagine I should feel like I would like to experience, to connect to someone who would make me feel so deeply.
