in that light
i see you
brand new
and not for the first time
i'd face the tallest wall
and run right through
one hundred times or more
all just to hear you sigh
when our fingers touch
it's like the filaments that join movements
a spark that burns me up
and rips a hole straight through the sun
all from ash it's gotta rise
endless is nothing
and nothing is endless
so i close my eyes
a moment's rest
i know you’re there
there's beauty behind the darkness
so don't hold on so tight
the sun will rise
not in contemplation or spite
it does not condescend in decent
you don’t have to hold on so tight
it will rise
in war or in peace
not to enthral or defeat
but just because it does

all from ash its gotta rise
all from ash its gotta rise … it’s… it has
a moments rest… moment’s?.. the rest belongs to the moment.
The last line sums this up beautifully, things happen just because they do. Nice one.

This is a wonderful write that has a real sense of some very deep loss…
