Little Boats
Your name etched into my skin
Watching it all sink in
Blood flowing like a river along the divots in my arm
you said you had written me a letter
so i was going 101 on the 101
because i thought you were the one
because i allowed
a fucking flicker of fucking hope
two storms met a pair of amber gems
and the whole world stood still
what do you want
turned into whatever you want
and two ruddy organs
snow white, petals of death
tiny yet simple
they call to her
a whisper of sleep
something to ease the tension
her eyes flutter shut
the bottle tips
a milky orange caught in the faint light
