Fists clenched in coat pockets and it’s not my first time trying to
Understand your distance. i’ve given you every piece of me, every
Corner of my mind; i’m running out of bones to lend, so
Keep time on me instead. bleed merlot and paint my face with

Your wine-stained kisses. skin, canvas, blank, yours. somewhere
Outside is the hole you’ve been digging waiting six feet
Under pipe ash, presumptions, drywall dust and delight and i’m

Ready to be cradled by sweet soil, decay. i’ve started to
Yearn for easy exits but all roads lead to you
And i’d rather dissolve than apologize again.
Never has love felt so empty; never again.
