Peaceful Mourning


Rosanna Krich

blackness drapes around the dove of my soul
without what things can make this hole feel whole
bemoan in newly found harmony
peaceful mourning created inside of thee

can you see it
can you look inside
can you breathe it
can you realize

pain bottled deep from within
weeps of release comein forth begin
state of solitude so comforting
hourglass filled brimless cloudlessly

can you see it
can you look inside
can you breathe it
can you realize

internal clippings stripped so casually
damn those self acts of lenity
grant mercy on your own self-hand
peaceful mourning's where it all began

can you see it
(that peaceful mourning)
can you look inside
(that peaceful mourning)
can you breathe it
(that peaceful mourning)
can you realize
(that peaceful mourning)
(peaceful mourning inside)

take...this...time...to open up your eyes
(take this time)
take...this...time...to rewind your mind
(take this time)
take...this...time...to refuel your soul
(take this time)
take...this...time...to...

can you see it
can you look inside
can you breathe it
can you now realize
