cold dark space

Life is but a collection of moments
What will yours look like?
Too dark to remember
Or a dizzying flash?

The cool air in my face upon leaving this place
The sound of angels laughing together
The pain in their eyes when they learn the truth
The smell and taste of tears splashing down their faces, down my back

Please let me ease the pain
Let me make it okay again
Give me the strength to do this work
Even if only for a moment

Do not steal these moments
They are not yours but ours
Why won’t you leave us to our moments?
They are all we have

Take away this numbness I have, I am useless this way
I desire to see them playing, please open my eyes
To hear the angels sing of this world’s wonders
To taste and smell of their sweetness.
Leave us be..
Don’t take away from me
