If it carries on I will have to get a referral for a urine test…

If it carries on I will have to get a referral for a urine test…
Pass me over
When I am sleeping
Sprinkle angel dust
Let it settle upon my face
Lest my eyes come open
As the breath leaves
In slow remorse
It would be painful
To be reminded
Of the passing
Nothing hurts more
Than remembering
When the only future
Is looking back
At what it was
To have a future
To look forward to
I am lifted
Carry me away
Take no prisoners
It is unnecessary
When leaving
Is an adventure
There is no escaping
Forward motion
What was left behind
Will fall away
Dreams are shed
As easily as old skin
When we rise
To meet
The unmaking
Of an image
It will be craven
If we fail
To pull away from shadow
And embrace
The coming of the light.
