Quadruple bypass. Kind thoughts and prayers for my Aunt. <3
EMPTY SPACE
My eyes look at the empty space
My heart aches as the tick tock
Takes place
A six hour stretch...stretch...stretch
H-aving hope through prayer
E-ardrums beat listening to the time
A-ching hearts cut out like paper
R-ips and tears proclaiming love for her
T-ime beats...beats...beats
My mom talks to her twin in twilight hours
A womb-dynamic duo
Hearts hours apart by phone
Squeezing hands
Together moist heads pressed...pressed...pressed
T-oo soon old age comes
W-ooing
I-ntroducing chest pains
N-ets catch her before she falls...falls...falls
My eyes look at the empty space
My heart aches as the tick tock
Takes place
A six hour pleading...pleading...pleading
