#suture
Lightning lives
between your fingers,
flashing silver inside
a handful of night
suturing blood
with exigence
through a needle’s eye,
with one hand kissed
by a shower of shrapnel
and the other twisted
in an infinite thread
tunneling light with
sublime precision.
Your needle
closes each gap open
with the cloth of Love
being woven
and each gap closed
holds me in this
lancinating tension,
as I slumber deep
in the currents of
your halcyon arms,
this world remains
tender and unbroken.

thread my heart through a needle
the size of your pretty words and
turn it around and double knot it;
i see it now: my life in an eye,
ah, sew it up, sew it up,
i don’t want to see this anymore.

He refuses to offer a piece of his heart
'Cause he can't trust it'll be kept unbroken
He keeps his feelings belted smart
Chances for new emotions left untouched and unspoken
He offers his rut, fresh and mastered
Decides it's the best and most he wants for now
The heart that's growing a case on him is being plastered
At the mere longing to exchange a loyalty vow
There is hope he will change and offer more
With no guarantee of his final choice for a future;
There is hope, at the depth of a bruised heart still sore
Longing to hold him close upon his merciful role as a suture.

Stepping on the corpses of all you've known
trekking through the field of bones
the sirens sing, green angels with broken wings
like a desolate future, in need of suture
I see a patina on everything, rustic brains
you can always find some sign of life
for there is always life within something
rose still exist among the filth and ****
there will always be beauty in the lies
and in the truths that flow through our mouths
