How hard was it for you,
dear,
to be someone the falling ones
crash on
that when everybody wished for
everything from her
and she was going down-
sure to break,
you caught her instead
and she crashed onto you
broke herself in your arms
you knew what to do
but you didn't have to
for she wanted to erase herself
from the face of the earth
like how wishes are reset
when the night is sleepy
and the darkness is tired
