Poems

Roses on My Skin
each time i
traced over a vein
a blush-pink stain
blooming
like every blemish
kissed in a dull light
itβs as if
everything youβve ever
touched now had a line
going right
through it
lines
that only i could
see
itβs as if everything
we were became
meaningless
like crinkled petals
on a windowsill
like
every vein
iβve longed to kiss
goodbye
drying up inside
dying of thirst
in a cracked vase
and
before the incision is
made there
between dizzy spells
and tears
i only hope
red roses grow
and run
far
far away
from here
...
