in our own field of stars

most bones rest in peace

I want my bones to rest with you

in sunlight, in warmth

fingers sinking into deep grass

hair tangled up in vibrant petals

of daisies and forget-me-nots

most bones rest in peace

but my bones want to rest with you

between the mangled sheets of our bed

between the beating heartbeats

of the home

that was always sewn

within the fibers of our souls

most bones rest in peace

but my bones only truly

rest with you
