Cylinder 9/20/13

Stainless steel
Encasing the remains
Of my beloved daughter
Hangs from a chain
Around my neck
And rests comfortably
Between my breasts
Just as she used to
Snuggle close to my chest
And sleep...
Dreaming the dreams
Of the innocent
I feel like she's not
Alone
Inside that 
Cylinder
I feel like all my joy
All my happy
All my heart
Is encased in there
As well....
Now resting 
Against the 
Empty shell
That used to hold
My heart

Just a small
Stainless steel
Cylinder
