Turning Corners
I turn the corner
lose control
she is not mine
I can feel it now
feel her
hugging my chest
happy birthday
scream in silence
don’t speed
it’s 3:34am
you won’t let me rest
choking on my pain
dying
STOP crying
breathe
it meant nothing
it meant everything
tears stream
bite my knuckle
make it bleed
swallow the pain down to
my heart
watery green light
left hand turn
salty tears in my mouth
gliding down my cheek
my nose is running
home
