Rip out my ribs with your teeth and then heal the wound with your lips because your kisses reseal the opening that vulnerability unzips. I'll light my biggest fears on fire and lay them at your feet and watch you put out the flames only to sweep up the ashes and pour them down my smoke filled throat. And I'll gaze for hours in a trance as the blazing dance and scarlet hues mesmerize me until I'm warm inside and numb in a daze of blues. It seems I'm only capable of flattering those flowing fingers that bend my bones rather than ridiculing the way they crush my decayed carcass.
Why is it the times in which I need the comfort of words the most, they never come? Will I ever write my way through heartbreak?
