when ever i hear your name
my heart instantly
sinks
to the bottom of a
sea.

I dance in the rain when nobody's watching,
Just so I can be in peace.
When my body flows like raindrops,
And the rainbow's staring down at me.

I wonder how it feels to be loved by your own dad.
I turn
off
the news

Terror
rocks
our
world

Heads
bowed,
praying
in pews

And
international
flags
are furled

Rubbing
my
aching
temples

Viral
news
finally
makes sense

Close
my door
as nations
tremble

And
bask,
in sweet
silence.

pressed up against your face
sun streaming in through the curtains
light caressing your cheeks
my arm hurts in this position
but i'll keep it still
if it means getting to be next to you
