Where green grass
grows
Smokes our
Village
In the crumble of ash that you assured
Could never be lit
In the first place

Where memories run never age
Where we remain in sage
I'll never learn I'm looping ruins
Even when I cross where you strayed
Even as I
Run right through me

Run until you can't breathe
Run until your lungs squeeze
The last gasp ever to spare
Aspirate on time
Breathing in deep
Despair
