<3
these bloodstains are permanently painted in the linings of my fingertips.
these words flow like the notes on a musical chart
falling on paper like the snow this December
it's too early in the year for these overcoats
i just want to live forever
these heartaches come like headaches this time of year
poetry flows like rush hour traffic this time the year
everything seems to come crashing down right before my eyes
bleeding like the sonnets and singalongs, screaming
germs are spread like the doves in the park
when i'm calling out or name, out after dark
as the lights burn out Seminary Street
and our hearts burn out, our hearts burn out
tomorrow comes like fire, following a cloud of dust
7 hours a day to throw myself at your feet
begging for your mercy
falling
you slit me open from groin to sternum
but nothing comes out, nothing.
it starts in order, and it ends in order.
...but everything in between in just chaos.
.rupture the walls around my heart.
this dreadful old house is so empty without you here.
no.. im not okay.
