Blue sirens
Blue lights smother the sky
Urgency is calling
999

Mouth agape
Heart falling apart
Memories whiz by
In the taillights

Mourning rises
Flowers point to the sun.
As if the world didn’t stop
The night it went wrong

Daffodils dare to live
In front of you
Yellow and bold

Confronting you
Defying all breath
heavily exhaled from your lungs

How come life carries on
After she’s gone?
