Literature Text

it all became a heartthrob obsession
when your eyes smiled along 
with the sun, too,
and my broken bones fluttered along
to my now alive again, heart-rate--
the violin strings i doubt i could play
would ring through your ears like
every thought of your fingers
running through my hair
that would never happen in this poisoned
"reality."

bone like wisps and heavy rib cages
that i will never get 
to caress and fix,
no- i'm not a mechanic
but i'm damn close.
so let me write you a 
river of some kind of
sad truth, a riverside woodland
where both of us see
the forest for the trees
"don't fall into the water!"

(i don't have a line of fate on my palm.
does that mean i've already met it?)
i really shouldn't waste my words on a boy who's too hard to understand.
but that's love, dear.
"everything that drowns me makes me want to fly."
