buckle.



scatter with me
you could have
i think

but you were getting drunk with your friends
you were taking all the smoke in like storm clouds
you were dropping your words in the grass
and i was fine with that
i think

i took in my own thunder
leaning out the window
everything got really damp
hey, i couldnt give a shit
i could have struck down trees
swallowed the ocean
anything
just not your kiss on my temple

moths maracas ribs and some bruises
i was bound for this


i didnt want to see the lady's tumors
i cant feed from suffering
i dont watch tv

and her fingers stroking the beadwork
she was staring like i'd just stepped out of the sarcophagus itself
i shielded my heart
and my hands seemed too small
not for the first time, either

you said you loved my freckles
yeah

    this was absolutely stunning.

    the entire poem was great.

    This is fantastic! It actually reminds me of a rap just because I can feel its attitude you know? & the words are sharp like..I can hear them. Very striking♥.
    This was written with so much power its like magnetic. I loved every line of it.
    My favorite line though is definately
    "she was staring like i'd just stepped out of the sarcophagus itself"
    SO amaaaazing<33. I can just like see so many things in this line like..you glowing all golden like an ancient girl haha. & it just flowed.
    I loved the first half how it kind of revolved around nature stuff? =D.
    I liked all the stuff that seemed like..real memories and situation just little clippets of them? The tumors and the tv & everything.
    Such an amazing write I am so happy to read this from you I miss you<3333.
    ♥.xo.
