My lover, my liver
Hear this and know
The depths of your soul
are unimaginable
Your eyes so deep
your compassion so complete
If you were to come down to the ground,
you would see
no guilt lies on your shoulders
time and time again
you were the bigger person,
and you crossed over
your own limitations,
your own weaknesses and faults,
the breaking dawn follows you closely,
listens, breathless,
taking notes
To run from the Sun
is as wise as to hide –
there are times when we need an escape
You have done your duty,
you were a bringer of beauty,
and now you deserve a break
