On Who Do We in this Life Hang?

one word
sung
a whisper thought in silence brought into this room
........................................landing
......begging

the thought of words across
the barrel of your sturdiness
holding deep in my chest

on wheels these
have not been

crisp is the sound
of night
so sudden this life is gone
arms and doors rush past you
the sunlight whispers the sky's for you

curl up your child's bed
curl up who you love & what they said
and what they mean to you

curl up who you will turn to
when you need them
and who needs you
strings tied in the thread

    Very cool! I hate to leave out other parts, but I really liked this ^^^
    "barrel of your sturdiness" is a great phrase!

    Nicely done, Rollings. :) I can see I've been missing out on a lot of good stuff by not coming here more often. Keep them coming!
