Breathe now for the last breath is gone

Rock-a-bye-on-you
Ever-infant child singing

And let the sweet tears
Carry you home

Happy as humility
Sustains and falls onto its knees

The soul walks on now
To crawl, fly away. Come.

We are all invited to laugh at Love’s funeral
Celebrate the life of every heartbreak birthing
As the solar plexus sounds mad, sad and maybe even …
And here now are the memories that keep killing you with joy

Forcing you to see hope alive
And choose the light that slaps you in the face
And you still must defecate and urinate all over
Eternal misery and or be happy … I’m not sorry for this

Unless you want Love’s living spirit to die …
Again?
Forever?
Heal, rise, write, and paint and so I ask you picture this

A work of art was once created by you … as you were
And a cycle comes full as its last breath is going now

Breathe now for the last breath is gone by C.C. Arshagra

Inspired by Gigi! micmac and her piece "Torn…. somehow, with effortless tears she has inspired a poem, again.

About Torn…. the art work that inspired this poem GiGi writes:

This a double layer of bark and a portrait of my grandaughter Angelica.
size…2928×2346
Birgitta choose the title…thanks again Birgitta I love it.
Before ,a long time ago , they use to capture the moment in paintings.When I did that layer I had the impression to had captured the beautiful face of my Angelica forever.

See* Journal section of my RB page here for a list of short poems* / Words Count listed
A vast spectrum* of subjects, issues, and levels of intensity.

Why, in the name of all that’s holy has no-one commented on this wonderful piece of writing!!
Shit! I give up then!!!
Hi Pijinlane, Sorry it took so long to thank you for this bold and passionate comment. It is one of the early poem inspired by art on RedBubble. I was so new to this site at the time. Your comment here truly made me laugh out loud. and it is one of my all time favorite comments. Your respect for all the diverse writings I have written and posted here humbles me and gives me faith. Love to you! Love to you and love to you!

Kafka, Thank you again. She seems to have the gift of being art. Art flowing both within her and out of her to the world. Now that’s talent! Too GiGI! And WATER!

Poignantly written.
Sometimes when I write a piece like this one, I so wish to add larels beneith layers that I wonder if anyone would ever return to it and see something within something for the first time. Third time. Etc. Thank you Elf. Sorry I have been away from RB for so long. I am grateful for your words! Be well.

Well!!! sheepish grin … makes me angry when real talent is not appreciated but I suppose it would be a very boring world if we all liked the same thing!
I just like how you use words!!
