Two artists separated
By an ocean of
Lived circumstances,
A somber sea that
Carries them both
To different shores,
Yet, there explore
The weight of the world
That constantly crushes
Its survivors
Upon the bones
Of the
Perished.
Their lives
Separate
Until that moment
Of divine discovery
Where one’s poetry sings
In the other’s ears,
Calling out all their fears—
Their tears through the years—
Seen.
The savage truth
Laid bare—
Understood—
The siren song
Sung,
Not by a siren,
But by one
Who survived her call,
Who scaled death’s wall
And cracked the bell
From whence hell tolls.
Two artists
Together
Without ever
Crossing hearts.
Each
Contributing their part
Of cathartic
Healing
Art.
