Detroit Mourning - Holly Miranda

Look at you looking at me

Up above your spirit

You were out of your body

I was digging around in your neck

For a pulse

For a sign

You were mine for a time

You were my first home

Then you were free

I got stuck

I held you inside too long

I should have known you were gone

Staring down that hall

At the white sheet and learning

In my way I should have known

You couldn’t leave if I forgot to let go

Please please forgive me

Take warning

Take something darlin'

But it’s all good

You’ll go when you should
