Always a grain of hope
Pressed into these soft
Edges
You call lust
Chrome blush
Blooming in your trust
Shading in the veins of your leaf
As I sway myself to sleep
Glistened gazes shut
Once
I mark you
Unplugged
As vulnerable as I ever am
You grow naked ever more

Petrified with a tired song
Of metal you call rust
Hold me
Once
I'm gone
