A gift from the heavens
A tiny body made of youthless clouds Eyes of silver rounds Heart of cotton, threaded with coral birds In melody calling Delicate, austere Light, Absent presence A broken angel; losing its lively crescent wings to the fatality Of mortality. Special, In ways the world never could stimulate. Smart, In the way his mind always caught him before his steps. In the way his heart stopped breathing before his breath. In the way he questions the world, but never seems to question himself. Survivor, For a tiny body of clouds, lifting him to where his dreams always did. With eyes of silver rounds, that saw far more than to be seen. With the cotton heart, where coral birds reside in song. In melody, calling his vast slumber. Unleashed, A circus of rainbow flaps within him. The melody, replaying in tens Filling up his innocence A bird, Of celestial giving Losing its lively crescent wings to mortality. A broken angel A broken limb A broken heart A broken sing Born to begin Disease of the skin Identical twin Let him begin Reliven In death do us part, And heart do us live.
