Life is a Cycle

Life is a cycle
It lives and breathes
Not a moment can be still

It's fragility 
Born of necessity 
Carried on at will

For all the unfairness
We have to go on
Find sense to be free

Even though it feels
Like our canvas is white
Where colour should be

Already your heartbeat
Has found it's way
Into all we do

Our hearts broken
Ignited in grief
All for you

As the tables turned
I tucked you in
A gentle kiss on your face

With tears streaming 
I smiled as I saw Mum
As again she took her place

Love and miss you Dad ***
