I think
there are flowers growing
out of your
mouth.
You taste like weeds:
Wet and
muddy.
Our roots
or legs
tangled
in the dark once
and I thought I remembered safety
in the vines
But now they have
all
been
stripped
away.
Now,
I am like this empty house.
I am all cuts
all bruises
all dirt
And it hurt when you left me
but I
am still standing
The
foundation
is
cracked
but still strong
