So wide
The skies
I cry
& yelp
For help
Please
Strike these stakes
Set up camp
Alone
To love again
Tearing open
This ribbon of life
The smell
Of your arms
Wrapping me
So
The day
Glows
& pours
Sunlight
All over
Dampened
Clothes
The sins
I can’t commit
You torn
From bed
My eyes
My head
I hope the
Dog is fed
While paint
Legs spread
In purple
It bleeds
From your walls
Your house key
Just stalls
In mid air
I stare
At my keychain
& the place
That fits
This key
Stuck again
With me
Your delicate shoes
Line the wall
Next to mine
How long
How much time
Till I get
A cardboard box
& box our love away
With afternoon shadows
Our heat slowly fades away
Just the memory
Of the day
I hold tight
Falling again
In love
So young
An angel
True
This place for you
Next to the bed
Alone in my head
You are this place
To watch you sleep
Such pain
I weep
The thought of you
Growing up
Walking through
The forest alone
You have tools
Tricks of the trade
Oh be brave
My love
As you walk
Through this next
Damp season
On your own
