This song / poem was written after my grandmother passed away. I was on the computer typing one of my compositions when I felt a presence around my body. I couldn’t see her, but I knew it was her.

Depression Stays In Tears

 

from the moment of dawn

            I felt your hand 

to the time of  rebels

            I share your blood

I see my soul

            inside your eyes

with the moon that shines

            like your kitchen knives

 

unveil my eyes

            the window to your  soul

I hear you call my name

             with the sound of a howl

as the tears unleashed

             from your eyes

like the sun

            the moon shines like your eyes

 

I miss the touch

             of your sheltering arms

as the tears come down

             from my eyes

I hear this hole ripping

            like the sound of  exploding stars

 

the sun rises out

             from beneath the Earth

and I feel your heart

             beneath my skin

the sun rises high

            from around the Earth

and I feel your soul

            around my skin

the simple glow around me

            to the edge of the Earth

 

come out from the closet

            you say

and tell me

             what brings you here

silence fills the room

            as the smile emerges

memories, unfold and remain

            for just one day
