let alone the free
set astray the free
everything that she was ever meant to be
has been thrown away into the water
streaming down slowly
down her
her back
a lullably of all those times when the world ate us
alive
it ate us
alive
and I dived into you broken shores
full of broken sea shells
and empty bottles of whiskey
opened by the pirates of your unstoppable heart
hungover by the bench
your stenched cling to salt and me
yes
i remember
i remember
when i woke up next to you
and your eyes
they smelt like me
and your fingers touched like mine
you were exceptional
you were you were
more than phenomenal
breathe down everything i ever gave to you
with rusty canvas and charcoal beaten down
love spells
stuttering memories flood me
running running
breaking
I could wake up face
facing
the floor
while reading the last note you wrote for me left behind the closed door
