Poems
Apr 2011
Escape Artist
Became
soft and tired
of the delicate dance
on invisible glass of your
sadness
One night,
when you slipped out,
running from what is known.
nameless blades of grass slit your skin,
so weak.
The Fear,
is it surreal?
veins strained into ribbons
to grab, and patiently untie
the knot
Listless,
you transformed
into a shell, and sat
shoreline swallowing sand, I still
loved you.
