Adore - Last Night's Sky for Dying Eyes

By surprise,
The reaper came to end her life
Eyes rolled back in her head
Blood spewing from her mouth,
Her weakened heart losing the fight
Watching near was her daughter of 7 years
Hysterical, in shock, horrified,
As her mother “closed her eyes”
That night, the moon was a waxing crescent
As her breathing stopped,
Frantic chest compressions
Pulled to the floor
Punching to restart her heart
All is scurried
As did the sky, our world went dark
Her weakened heart losing the fight
Watching near was her daughter of 7 years
Hysterical, in shock, horrified
As mother “closed her eyes”
Now her chair sits empty
We carry the weight of heavy hearts
Endless tears and silence
Anger, grief ripping us apart
Endless questions and sleepless nights
Her babies feeling so abandoned
Weeping through the nights
She ascended into the sky
Into the cosmos
Into the eternal realm of stars and spirits
And in dreams, roaming the galaxies
Provided the gifts of
Flight and invincibility
Reclusive spirit now open
Blissful and curious
Swarming in pools of cosmic dust
Onward to the ring of Saturn
Merry go round,
Our “Mary” found
Flung into the eternal orbit
Indiscriminate
Won't become the plight of Kepler
Its urgent search for planets
Such as the earth...
Abandoned
