Cheeks like cherries,
Now just silhouettes,
Voiceless, faceless,
Stretched on time’s rough canvas.

Come with me to sleep together
On a bed of sweet and succulent words
Like a summer rainbow
Come!
Come with me to sleep together
On a bed of sweet and succulent words
Like a summer rainbow
Come!
Where shadows outnumber words,
I hear the bombs tearing through the skies—
Each child struck, a sun that will never rise.
In hidden chambers, the predators
Silent as worms, calculate the worth of blood.
The darkness grows in Gaza, Ukraine
and Lebanon...

My child will be born
By another woman
My life have been lived
By others.
My soul
Rightly belongs to you, Lord,
Identity?
Identityyyyyyy…

Our light carves eternity—
You will still forget.

Shimmering skies boreal—
Dust of light we are.
