Somewhere down here beneath your quiet light, I’m here thinking of you and speaking aloud tonight. Somewhere up there, I know that you still care,

Pumpkins grin widely, their candles burn cold, not warm, and whisper your name.
Baby monitor— soft laughter hums through static; my child sleeps silent.
When it all ends, the silence will implode, replaced with harsh whispers of what you’ve always known: * The brain repeats a phrase: E R R O R * C O D E.
Hush now, child, close your eyes The night is cold, the moon has arise * Hush now, child, the night has come The shadows whisper “you’re not alone”
The porch lights come on; kids in costumes fill the street, bags rustle like leaves. * Laughter through the dark, pumpkins burning on each step,
She burned, she burned forever. Blue fire, her haunting call. A voice they will remember. It echoes through the hall. *
Empty hands reach out, nothing answers, nothing stays; despair eats the sun.
Light clings to the dark, a promise that night will fade; hope learns how to bloom.
The future burns bright, embers of hope catch the wind— new stars light the path.
Oh, my bad, I must’ve misunderstood; when you said forever, I thought you would. * I guess “just a fling” is love’s new trend
The knock came at 3:02 a.m. It wasn’t gentle, nor was it quiet; instead, it was loud like a siren, booming like a lightning storm, disturbing the silence within the home.
