wander
As death wanders across silky white skin
I wonder what may have been
Your eyes so much like your brothers
So perfect
But still so still
Your fingers, toes
Everything is perfect
But everything isnt perfect
Your body
Its still
It does not move
Your breath
Never caught
Still I wonder what may have been
As I watch in the first pew
The words the reverend says
Theyre a dream
A fantasy
My babies arent gone
They were here just last week
Poking at my ribs
Giving me butterflies
But still I wonder
As we travel down the road
I start to cry
It sinks in
As I watch them lower you
Into the cold ground
This piece of earth
Is all there is of you
All I have left to touch of you
But I still wonder
As tears fall nightly
Casting streaks upon my cheeks
Clouding my mind
Causing me to think of suicide
For my babies are gone
Eternally
