early grays choke me uncertain
numb daybreak, phantom sheets
dipping into the cool crevices
your body used to fill
your breath once tasted sweet on my lips
but in morning fog it bleeds ice
dancing transient across my tongue
it breaks against this raw, hollow mouth
i curl into the shirt i never gave to you
frosted with empty memories --
stolen nights
sanguine skin
swirls of smoke escaping your fingertips
and your voice in my dream last night
someday it won't hurt but
this morning it is chilly sharp

this morning it is chilly sharp
hit me hard. nothing feels real anymore
