no one has died from weeping
so why do I fear drowning
in this storm from inside me
i escape into the quiet hum of your breath
the slowing cadence of your heartbeat
like I haven't heard this music before
like my world hasn't collapsed from its song
while you lie still as the morning air
and I sway to the fading tune
never again will I dance with you
i know you haven't been heavier
yet it is a lightness that leads you away
a song I hope to never hear again
