Cut clean and dry dreams

by @tntcl

One night in the middle of summer, I was given my favorite dream. And in it, I was her; the girl you'd think about when you sing. I woke up, glazed in melancholy- in sparkle juice sheen. And I touched your bracelet to my lip, the one I stole right before we kissed, and when our mouths swished dreamy washing machine. Cleaned our inner depths of psyche, anointed with love poison- unable keep the thoughts of longing, dry, strong desires are the knife that cuts the girl from your cloth the one you think about when you sing, the one I think you like. So shredded and clean I bound my lips to you, I didn't stop until dreams came to life.
