Death is promised to the bee |
Who’s sting protects the colony. |
Was its life worth nothing more |
Than honey for the queen? |
Life is a branch and it is a dove, |
Handcrafted by confusing love. |
Sign language is our reply, |
When church bells make no sound. |
In hollow towers and empty hives, |
We craved sweetness with a fear of heights. |
Was it all just a grain of sand |
In an hourglass? |
The smartest thing i’ve ever learned |
Is that i don’t have all the answers, |
Just a little light to call my own. |
Though it pales in comparison |
To the overarching shadows, |
A speck of light can reignite the sun |
And swallow darkness whole. |
Death is a cold, blindfolded kiss. |
It is the finger pressed upon our lips. |
It puts an unwanted emphasis |
On how we should have lived. |
Life is a gorgeous, broken gift. |
Six billion+ pieces waiting to be fixed. |
Love letters that were never signed, |
Sent to where we live. |
But the sweetest thing i’ve ever heard |
Is that i don’t have to have the answers, |
Just a little light to call my own. |
Though it pales in comparison |
To the overarching shadows, |
A speck of light can reignite the sun |
And swallow darkness whole. |
