pictures of you

i love my obsession, i know what obsession brings.

we smile, knees sore and red 

like checkered blankets.

the sky cries of a loss.

love festers like an open wound.

​

do you not remember?

blue skin and cold wind

hang yourself by black wings

bite the words that came out of your mouth.

blades of earth cut through snow.

regret stings like freezer burn.

​

do you love her or do you hate yourself?

lay in the dirt, alive and understanding 

she bleeds to communicate

brown leaves trampled by memories so vivid.

nostalgia aches like a broken bone.
