Semesta Cruinne
At peace
Updated: Mar 16
For the first time
Her hands weren't held so tight
By one another
For the first time
I saw her shoulders relax
And her jaw released
From the digging of teeth
Below in above
For the first time
It was as if
She wasn't apologizing for the space
She took in the world
She wasn't taking much anyway
She seemed to be okay
On the velvet and the wood
It was as if she was meant to be there
As if she belonged
In the coffin
As if she was home
And could finally rest
The first time that I saw her at peace
Was when she wasn't
At all
