“There’s something wrong with the sky” she said
as a tear dusted her pillowcase
and the light faded from her eye.
It had been days since his passing
and yet it felt like none.

“There’s something wrong with the sky” she said
as the shine faded from her smile.
Now her skin grew cold
and her body grew old
as she knelt over the body of her
dead child.

“There’s something wrong with the sky” he said
as bodies
fell around
yet no type of retribution
could raise his son up from
the ground.
​

The moon was in the sky that night.
Scent of death
hanging in the air
as straight ahead the couple fled
onto another nightmare.
