The one about –

Posted on January 5, 2019January 19, 2019 by Torrey

Do you remember the night

you made me stay alone,

save wolves yet to be realized,

in the back of (y)our everything?

I was

so kindly

reminded today

of the space I felt

between us then.

Curtains of black and grey

billowing between dust

and dust

and dust.

I have no choice.

I’ll just

Standby

as I wait for you.

If only I could be so grossly incandescent.

Bubbling beneath my skin

at every mention

at every thought.

You don’t even know

the depths of hate

I feel.

Tell me again

all the things you hate about

the world,

and I can point them out

so close,

breathing on your skin.

you scrape the flesh above scars,

not expecting wounds to reopen.
