Oh My

oh my
dear
how you breath into the world love
my best girl
you cannot erase the pain anymore
it lies so much deeper
deeper than hell
deeper than a lifetime
it lies deeper than us
oh my soldier
yes the picture is skewed
and you wake up one morning without your mom
you wake up one morning and the phone is dead
you wake up one morning and look in the mirror
and you see how you have been spared
you see how you have been tricked
how you have been adored and cheated
and you want to scream
and you wake up the next morning
and you do what you do
you hold up the world
wherever there is beauty
where there is even a chance of love
and you hold up and you usher it in
and you be gentle with yourself girl
because you can't undo or erase
the pain
you just hold up
you stick it out
you be here
