Madeline Aug 2018
ghostly sighs chime
as they float
from the hole in my chest
choking on words
as they form to acid
spluttered sounds of silence

furious clasps shadowed
by a thump as i tumble
i lay in a puddle of my own tears
undefeated

i become a sparkling stream
i roll in the grass as i melt
and stare at the trees
the branches sway whispering
sweet nothings in my ears

the flowers sing a melody
changing colour as they twirl
each petal decorating my hair
intertwining with each strand

as each tear drops
the blades of grass grow
tangling and interwoven with me
wrapping me in their embrace
i am swallowed
i become whole again
i am one
