Scooter

You are not like the rain

You never teased my skin

Planting ideas in my head

That grew roots in my heart

The acid Dripping from your tongue,

You burnt me.

 

The storm raged

 

The waters haven't calmed since.

I felt love, I Feel love, I bleed hurt

And long for a tsunami

To sweep me from this nightmare.

Come back

Break my skin

Please

Show me what it feels like to love again.

Let me dance in the toxicity

And bathe in the poison

Your scent

Your fumes

Paint

Dirt

Home

A fresh rain falls

I'm drawn back in

 

Let me drown
