The September Voice

Buy a white silk ribbon

My love


Lay it on your new glass dresser

And light a candle near it and



Visualise all our cherished memories


Together

Within it


Tie it

Into a sacred bow


And then gently put it under

One of our favourite pillows


That way


We'll sleep together

Every night


Real close

Like we used to do


For our love is stronger than death


And lasts beyond the grave


And it's how I

Now a lone survivor 


Waiting in one of Gods

Repentance Caves


Continue


Continue in hope

With my beloved memories of you


Lighting my way 

Through this firefly-lit blackness


With all the crazy things

We once used to do
