Delicate


I'm finding this life;
this mind; this world,
Fragile.
Delicate.


He called me to the long grass;
he lay entwined.
He said I looked
Tired.
Weary.


The cloudless sky cast shadows;
they chased;
Twisted between us:
Left clutter
where only still eyes
should remain.


I'm finding his devilish smile
a reflection of the storm:
Contradictory.
Enticing.


He only let me watch the sunset
so I could burn in the rippling haze.
Sweet flesh,
Melting.

The grass, it was severed
past the summer.
Entwined, he was lost;
devil's smile in the sun.

Blood.
Not Burning.

Torn.
I'm learning.
