Autumn Skin
A chaos has been birthed inside of me.
It’s Ghosts, playing hopscotch.
My Heart, fighting against lung.
The Blood, making out with startdust.
A destiny wishing to reform itself
trying to recognise its name
smile at its reflection.
A natural disaster beginning its annual cycle inside of me.
Inside of you.
Like how Summer recognises Autumn’s leaves,
it’s twiggy branches letting go of its maroon mascara.
Stripping itself bare of past fantasies and love.
An internal hazard that dances for the Gods inside of you.
The ones yet to be discovered.
The ones yet to be explored.
So, retract
unclip your wings and reopen your cave of comforting darkness so as to rediscover the light again.
Soon...
It’s soon...
You’re soon.
Soon, my love.
