Confession from Heaven
as you can see
we have potential
although hearts burst out in tears,
locked behind bars, in chains,
against a will of their own,
we carry every blink used
to wipe away the pain,
we stand guard when the Earth
shakes underneath feet full of breath
breathe easy
we have potential
we have not lost the sunlight
of yesterday,
or the smell of a growing world
childhood kisses are fresh on our
souls
we have not passed
we are not the past
we are your honest future
waiting
for our bound hearts
to hold each other
once again.
