Eternal

One day When we all thought Saturday was a depiction of the sky raining with birds..., singing.. Blue as the day comes with heat..., ready to call itself a sunny day My loved one received a call... Her father has just passed on A phone call that changed the flavored air that was in the room that had bottled up oxygen made up from the amount of deep breaths taken by the thought of perfecting a goodbye One day..., One of us...,will cover the cost of a funeral with more than just groceries and R200 airtime My love..., there could never be forever's here, So you will have to hang up.. God is on the other side of the speed dial I have never lost a parent before.. All my life I have watched those who are near and dear to me trade a touch for memory So Dear Mother Before you pass on I will marry this woman and together we will spread and stretch the branches of our arms to keep her warm I will believe in rituals, I will believe in the forever part I will believe in the story of two souls conjoined in one body..., you will live in her eyes Dear Father our timeliness do not have eternity printed at the back of the book, so I am coming Home, the smell from a dish death prepared for us has made its way to my kitchen The ingredients are of accepting life as a flash of the moment I am hungry Dear Mom and Dad I will be a walking monument of the characteristics of your morals and values before you pass on... Please answer the phone Dear Parents I love you
