You were a kiss in a blender, A chandelier of weeping strings. I drank your name through static, Swallowed lullaby shards Wrapped in candy grief.
We made love beneath wormlight You wore thunder like silk. I gave you stars; You brought a fork to my funeral And laughed as I bled jam.
I begged through balloon fangs, My ribs tuned to backward echoes. But you rode a fishbone bicycle Into another soft apocalypse.
Your love bit only in shivers. You adored me as glitter and salt But fled when my tears grew limbs And asked for names.
You left with ducks in lab coats, Prescribing your smile in pills. I sleep in your ghost’s teacup, Paint storms on toast, And scream into jellyfish.
I kissed your silence’s socket, Wore your absence like velvet plague. Mannequins fed me your Sanskrit lies On glitter IVs.
I built microwave shrines To your maybe. My therapist asked who you were I said: expired milk with blood on the back.
Your ghost plays hopscotch in my skull. Mirrors wear your grin like gospel. I search aquariums for your stare Only castles remain, and even they refuse me.
Tell me—was I your scrapbook of ruin, Your empathy vacation, Your control carnival?
The spiral laughs. It spins in your perfume. And I clap For my own collapse.
