25 July 2019

interval of silence




all those nights
she breathed in loneliness like oxygen
the words overwhelmed her
but she didn't know what they meant.

in the end she screamed
filled her lungs
her chest rose up and down
& his cold fingertips pried it open

in the interval of silence
he found stars written upon her heart
constellations that sparkled in her tears
and her body is just dirty clothes.
