I found her there
hanging there
from her eyes
the blankest stare
the color still,
her blue unchanged
as if to say:
"I'm still the same,
the sister that you knew so well
'cept released from my secret hell"
I took her down and held her close
I thought that I had known the most
of all her pain
of all her shame
and now I can't even speak her name
that angel floating above the ground
I mouth it now without a sound |
Submission Name: The Suicide of a Sister
