icy ink close around
my dim eyes tired
from staring at the ground of
glistening starlight
breath billows pulled from my lungs like a ****
floating in the void

Words
Scratch in my throat
Burn in my belly
Dance on my nerves
Vibrant
Alive
And so utterly inexpressible by my woefully inadequate and lifeless tongue

There
Is
No
Way
Words
Will
Cease
Soon

I am drowning in thoughts screaming to be expressed by painfully limited language

I dance around the truth, communication lacking accuracy

I
Cannot
Be
Understood
Even
By
Myself

But I must be.

You are
Pure
Glittering with light
I want to live inside your heart
And never feel cold
You are
An impossible creature
A soul free and vibrantly alive
And yet
You called me beautiful
