Her vitals are dropping like flies The air in the room is staler than bread Everyone here is a critic of sorts Amidst curtains and curtains of black, sunken eyes Her dreams are breaking like stone The table beside her is colder than ice She feels love on her arm but can’t love it back Can only see curtains of palpable bones So meager, her breath, it drops. Falls flat.

Curtains and Curtains
Her vitals are dropping like flies The air in the room is staler than bread Everyone here is a critic of sorts Amidst curtains and curtains of black, sunken eyes Her dreams are breaking like stone The table beside her is colder than ice She feels love on her arm but can’t love it back Can only see curtains of palpable bones So meager, her breath, it drops. Falls flat.
