Pinched,
warm fingers prod,
gathering fragility,
kneading emotions dough
risen,
beneath lions jaw,
dominated songs lament,
singing bus stop blues
pleasure,
charades in hollow promises,
addictions my soul can't shake
Author notes
Prompt: Long lost words whisper slowly to me
Still can't find what keeps me here
When all the time I've been so hollow inside
I know you're still there
Watching me, wanting me
