i hold them close to my chest,
crying, dearest monster do you love me?
and watching the salt bloom across the page
blurring my words into nothing.
these memories of mine,
dangling from waterstained fingertips
lamenting the quiet horrors of yesterday,
waiting for the terrors of tomorrow.
dearest monster, will you love me
when i have nothing to grieve?
crying, dearest monster do you love me?
and watching the salt bloom across the page
blurring my words into nothing.
these memories of mine,
dangling from waterstained fingertips
lamenting the quiet horrors of yesterday,
waiting for the terrors of tomorrow.
dearest monster, will you love me
when i have nothing to grieve?
