i walk across waters, carrying a heavy heat
determined to find a calm sanctuary, a quiet refuge
tucked at the end of the street, grapefruit marbles lead the hallway
to a family of angels, a skull at their feet
but to the left corner, i found her
peacefully suffering
head tilted back, and slight lips parting
lying with crouched knees
her fingers searching for her heart
soft candlelight illuminates a flowery glow
where the golden sky shines gently on her neck
and curly hair angels observe her distant pain
bodiless, their heads float
in murmurs far away
