Beginnings/Endings Poem by Maya Hanson

I watched the sunrise in your eyes
it's better than what's in the skies
and now I can't help but think of you when I see beginnings.

Erratic is a heartbeat and it can be sane
but I'm falling apart, I'm always insane
and after sunrises fade this chaos fires the missile at you.

I'll kick and sigh and I'll rob you blind
Stay free falling and I've lost my mind
and now I can't take an earthquake, live another day without you.

Break down heaven's gate, slow down time
I won't notice an apocalypse if you give me a rhyme
I fall from your fingers and don't notice the strings pull through.

I watched the sunset in your arms
made memories that kept me warm
but now I can't help but think of you when I see endings.
