The Rift
Born 2004, F, from Cambridge, United KingdomI watched from the outside of the rift,
A shadowy veil separating the dead from the living
Every eve I sat and stared
Into the eyes of my lover
Serious, but kind,
A mix of blue and green
That took me into an endless ocean
Even in the afterlife.
How could a non-being have feelings?
How could a ghost have tears?
Chills still crept, reminding of my humanly fears.
Time ticked slower in the rift, while humanity moved on, while my lover moved on,
I stayed still,
My heart shattered into pieces of glass
Unable to be rebuilt.
The Rift(Phoenix Rafferty)
I watched from the outside of the rift,
A shadowy veil separating the dead from the living
Every eve I sat and stared
Into the eyes of my lover
Serious, but kind,
A mix of blue and green
That took me into an endless ocean
Even in the afterlife.
How could a non-being have feelings?
How could a ghost have tears?
Chills still crept, reminding of my humanly fears.
Time ticked slower in the rift, while humanity moved on, while my lover moved on,
I stayed still,
My heart shattered into pieces of glass
Unable to be rebuilt.
