Meritorious

Would they notice until the
Moment you disappeared?
Like a red light flashing
Or an alert that says the
Person you once loved
Isn’t on this planet any longer
Tripped and fell in the garden
Bonked his head now he’s dead
Would they wish they said
All the things they didn’t say
Because their fuming or
Dry knit stuck in their feelings
Some type of world that
Binds someone from loving
I’ve heard it called jealousy
Grudges and otherwise
Like when you’re famished
You can hardly stand it
You’re starving so you
Feed the meritorious beast
Find a gift in the basement of
Dreams and delicious wonders
Everything you cannot escape
Eurythmia gracefully speechless
Only speaking in music
Check on me I’ll check on you
Dual serenade

Again

Do we gallop
Through the hearts
Of our loved ones
Do we bend down
To accept the crown
Their hope for us
Bestows

In crimson sheets
We share the space
Of eternal birth
Transitioned
And transformed
Reborn again and
Again

Mistakes that make us
Older repeating
The same if
We need to learn it over
Again

Dual harps that
Instrument
The measurement
Of what can lend
A heart to mend
Again

If we do so
Does it mean
We need to
Learn it all
Again?

Repeat what we
Do not understand
To take the hand
Of those who
Truly love us in
Multiple ways once
Again

There is no end
Even beyond
What we will
Be to one another
As lovers and
As friends

Loving caring
Being resilient
Over and over
Again
