Brief Conversations with Light

Home

Not where you are

Not where you wanna be

Who you are

Pain

Not make believe

All of the sudden things

That make life change

Light

That we can see

Traveled eternal miles

Stopped in our bodies

Sack in my stomach is

A pear-shaped bone

Three days later you were gone and I was home

Immortalized in coughs and rings and all the songs you couldn't sing

Underneath the parking lot

A passing thought

I should have stopped

For you

And all you did

Moved to eternal things

You left your body
