Silent Night
Just like the stars shinning
through the thick-dark-moving cloud
she stood making her dying
wish to the heavens _ if I’d be found
holding the body closer to the heartbeat
caressing the body beneath the sheet
listening to the little conversation at least
robbing the hands over the feet
I’d fall to pieces _ if you’d breathe
again and touch gods face
while you fly amidst the sky’s beast
and my heart across like as brace.
