Examine
Holding out for a sign of life.
You're distant now,
And distance severs love
Like love separates difference.
True only to our hearts, and minds
And never to desires of the flesh -
Solid and alive with darkness: -
Every cell a reminder of that
Which we cannot control.
I'll live this life only as long
As the sunlight keeps flickering
Through the black clouds above -
Helpless and constant -
Reminding us that hope is here
To help us ride out the storm.
