Light splayed out across the roof like paint.
A sweet glow, I never want to go.

Peeling back the layers
Citrusy and sweet
I want to know
How someone can be so
Perfect

Under the streets luminescence
"I don't love you."
...
I breathe in the words
Suffocating
birdy Jan 2022
I tried to dream of you tonight.

I can see myself clearer

every part of me working like clockwork.
a machine doesn't have to be alluring.
the mirror holds no expectations
of beauty.
and I'm safe in knowing that

I don't have to pretend.

Your words take me away
the warm breath of secrets
the scent of trust
you sound like love
birdy Jan 2022
My lungs can taste the air,
bitter.
