to kill you tenderly is so tempting its like bleeding when you're in pain and feign to the left when it hurts on the right and you rock your wounds to sleep every night in the moons gray light you hide in the variations in the shadows that know you and all you went through but endlessness is so ominous so i'll close my eyes in this small space that smells like the way you look at me when i look at your face and tears jerk me back to reality to where i don't want to be the way I know about us damages me intensely...
