Name it what you will, it knows itself before all, stuttered secret songs Come and see me in the morning, I’ll be in the sunlight. Dreams of slow songs and empty fields. You bit my neck, I woke up to it stinging still. wide eyes and shallow breaths I felt a small death then
Time capsules
the pit I must have dug for this small bundle of fears and regrets was not deep enough. Today I saw the water as it rushed towards me. – I know how to float. I don’t need to drown again, once more. Things have never been the same.
