hold me tight, my tumors growing I feel it inside My glowering black water showering My heart with tightening Hold me tight, I’m like a child
By Melissa Ingoldsby3 years ago in Poets
I learned to live as I drown My father saved me from drowning But now I get that feeling As I breathe this putrid air I am drowning
is this lady of blue stained beauty You, Jane Possibly flowering her milky green glory Toward my very tired eyes, awakening me again
is lonely in a look? In a Sunday afternoon Lingering waiting for your returned envelope Stamped and ready to open Yet my steps toward the mailbox is stifling
Night air, love in the middle Of a cold pool It’s cool and dark and we’re so stormy Look up at that sliver of green patch,
ping your verse to me I’ll sing you back a favorite beat Dream in pings (Which song do you want me to sing?)
lastly, how can I stand If not like a sturdy, gripping, gorgeous face, the sun drenched peak of futility and warmth and sadness
I sink under your warm Dandelion legs, Jane Your green Elf like loveliness Covers me like a oversized umbrella I could taste you over and over
dark raven covers me with his shadows I transform I sink into my fatal heart’s stone Seeping into your milky moon well
is this what I want you To dream of? A cookie dream Stuck on you, shhh!
Remember when we made breakfast together in such a sunny Lemon spring? I miss you.
Greedily looking, stalking I’m a rare one I can hear you Pining The world is a black hole and in it I’m sinking Because you’re fantastic and we are free
