Hearts Thumping In Lament Poem by Mark Heathcote

We're all tied together you and I
Little black moths of the fraternal sky
Dancing together bound by these stars
Moonlight; drowning in her reservoirs.

We're brothers of the wing on the wind
Flapping ahead… held by strands of hemp
Woven threads of string, kept just aligned…
Holding us our; hearts thumping in lament.

We're all tied together you and I
Little black moths of the murky sky
Oh why did I ever doubt your song?
Soft & cruel, I like you…
I like you just wanted to belong.

Dancing together bound by these stars
Moonlight; drowning in her reservoirs.
I found a brother an ally in my own sway,
Let me fly; let me break those strings, today.
Let me be sealed in stars and flowers, today.

Little black moths of the fraternal sky
We're all tied together you and I.
