Dare you to shatter Dance in the rain while Unbreaking and Made by the darkness. And there are stars,

I want to hold your hand Tight in my own As we run far away To a brand new home. I want to cup your face

If I died And no one knew, I don’t know. And I am scared And everything hurts

I’ll tell you to hold on tight, and we can be alone together in this nothingness. I’ll tell you to tell me a story, and we can laugh and cry together

There are words that I was mistaken to say. There was one time when we were strangers,

My heart Is a glass ball Delicate Awaiting somebody Who will cradle it gently

Empty eggshells Line the floor And you can’t walk across Or get to the door. You can’t reach your shoes,

We have tendencies to be self destructive and it was only ever our fault, yours and mine and we were never okay.

damp. damp and frothy and sticky upon

Wet paper arrows quivering against the bright string of the bow. The arrows

star-struck because stars are fictional, heavenly things. but

dance in the sun watch it splatter over your face

Maybe I resent it because I know that since it meant so much it hurts so much more. And maybe I resent the fact

I stand at the door What am I waiting for? A whisper or a breath To tell me to carry on? Carry on, carry on.
