my eyes are overflowing volcanoes and
my pulse is radiating heat you used to give.
-something is not right with us;
we're about to erupt and there
will be no survivors.-
I am a walking question mark with hope
lodged in my brain and poetry trapped
beneath my skin. I'm choke on 'I love yous'
but 'I need you' is pouring though my lips.
-I will not make it out alive
unless you say I will.-
you are a maze that twists my heart inside out
and I bleed memories of when you were the
air that made pathways through my body and
gave an excuse for a princess a heart beat.
-my heart beats for only you-
I talk to you in broken sentences, and words
that aren't even close to making sense. my
voice cracks like lightening and mumbles out
rain-shower incompetence.
-I'm willing to fall if promise to catch me.-
