I didn’t need
to say a word
she smelled
the pain on
my breath
the desire for
healing or death
she colored
my life
darker than blood
deeper than love
making me
take my
first breath
of violence
to say a word
she smelled
the pain on
my breath
the desire for
healing or death
she colored
my life
darker than blood
deeper than love
making me
take my
first breath
of violence
