It’s as if the words were leaking from my veins, intravenous poison channeled to my heart.
ASHES4BONESIt’s as if the words were leaking from my veins, intravenous poison channeled to my heart.
ASHES4BONESBlue dreams in ocean wading devotion I miss the waves of our healthy obsession.
ASHES4BONESI lay awake thinking about how none of it had to happen for me to get to this point; and how I’m glad I got there, anyway.
ASHES4BONESHearts retch on homestretch where will we go?
ASHES4BONESLet the season’s aroma soak into your bones as gingerbread men come to life.
ASHES4BONESI love it. The way you listen to my silence and find the words lost in impatience.
ASHES4BONESYou keep asking if I want more – Yet how could I ever say yes?
ASHES4BONESI don’t believe in love at first sight; only now I realize that you did.
ASHES4BONESYou are what you want, Do you want who you are?
ASHES4BONESSometimes I can’t believe I decided to heal even when I didn’t deserve it. Even when I did.
ASHES4BONESSun rising slowly, frost hanging in the plush air; The skies are ablaze.
ASHES4BONESIt turns out the monster in you overshadowed the ghost of kindness I so believed in.
ASHES4BONESDown to the marrow in your bones, you will always be beautiful to me.
ASHES4BONESThe sky is on fire I am, too cigarette burns on my faded tattoo.
ASHES4BONESYou left flowers on my bedside as if I were my tomb clumsy words that don’t begin to heal my wounds “I’m sorry” scrawled on a post-it.
ASHES4BONESAnd if you only opened the window you’d see the morning light seep through.
