when these tears are all i have left for you?
time has grown us twisted together in love, now
we collapse in a tangled heap.
i lose my breath for a moment longer than you do.
did i not promise to love you more?
i intended to tattoo my name in the darkest
corner of your heart like a ray of sun.
now it is my own soul that bleeds, torn
from the warmth of its long embrace with yours.
where is the cushion to soften my fall?
once, i would have called you if i felt the
wrench of every nucleus.
all you've left for me is an empty dial tone.
