Poems
Nov 2018
echo
she speaks in a way
that speaks to me
she steals pieces of my soul
and hides them in her little secrets
everything she says
is an ocean
and I want to drown
I want to drown
falling into the deepest
parts
knowing that in her words
I cannot swim
I donβt want to swim
I donβt want to float
I want to lie at
the bottom of the
deepest parts
and lose my breath
give up my breath
I want to get eaten by
something with
sharp teeth and
a sharper mind
so I no longer exist
outside of her
and when she whispers
those wishes she wishes
they will be my wishes
she does not know me
but she gets me
