Under the grey sky I saw you. . . There; In your purple dress. You stood like a statue Of a Greek Goddess Hovering over. You took two shallow steps To pull me out and Not let me sink Underneath all of this Filth that I've created. I wouldn't go back Even if I could, I couldn't go back Even if I would. Your lips moved twice And signaled me in. -Safe landings- I'll make it home Eventually. . . The carpet is A loaded gun. I am your target.
