I need anything
instant.
No time
for even
impatience.
Got my fingers
curled around you,
got my eyes
burning skin.
Wasted moments-
"could have been."
Regret every intake
of ugly air,
measure life
in each mouthful;
shallow lungs
for the deep
(thump, thump)
of your
heartbeat.
No more seconds to kill.
I spend all my time
forgetting.
Pockets lined with pennies;
paper out the window.
Every chance
I get to see you,
infatuation
draws within itself
and triples.
Lip-less thoughts,
I've lost my voice
in a sea
of horrible noise.
Author notes
Bloodstained sheets,
in the shape
of your heart.
Please tell me what you think
