How we died

Writer: andrewpatienceandrewpatience

This is how we die

by choking the muffled

nectar on our tongues

holding water in our hearts

and drying up our eyes

by suffocating the silent whispers

echoing the remains of home.


This was how we loved

in clasped hands

secretly inhaling earth

under the sand

of shorelines, free and full

breathing dust

and everything in between

forgetting we are bare

and children of one father


But this is how we live now

lost in separation

of all that kept us together

we live as though

death is live enough

to let us breathe.
