she kissed her knees
waiting for the wind
to take her slowly away.
yet the hands of time
were far too patient
making her stay.
she was in pain
and way too
lonely
and yet
she never wanted company
just the storm
and she
doesn't deserve it:
neither the rainfall
nor this draught.
she kissed her knees
and whispered
out of new words to pray
"please."
she barely even muttered
"just take me today."
hands pressed tight together
and lips trembling shut
kissing her
wet and salted knees
with her back against the wall
facing a hard place
a dead end
to a thousand feet freefall
and rock bottom...
to dust.
she kissed her knees
with closed eyes
and an open wrist...
waiting for her tears
to slowly drown her----
with one more
shattered bottle
beside her
and one less
plea to say.
"just take me away."
she kissed her knees
and she hugged her legs.
all soaked in her own waste
and her own faults
she nods her head
totally out of lies to
chant herself asleep
until she gnawed herself
downwards
six feet deep.
she never became a
failed adult
because life blew up
in her face so suddenly
all she is
is a shattered child
waiting for life
to spew her out.
she kissed her knees...
