i am dissapearing
underneath the folds of white cotton sheets.
i am breaking under waves of consciousness.
i am taking you in,
but only in pieces,
because i need a puzzle.
i need a riddle
i need something to occupy my mind enough,
to not be afraid of your honesty,
this ragged intimacy...
you are rough to touch,
you are soft to feel.
you are series of contradictions,
a shallow puddle,
in a neverending cave.
a series of broken bones
strong enough to hold me to the matress,
i close my eyes and i cant hear you breathing...
youre not breathing...
youre barely alive.
but i am waking from a coma,
somewhere in the dust
we shook into flight....
floating between your lips and mine....
I am stitches in a boxspring,
you are punctureing the holes where you'll tie me down....
to be obsolete and invisible
holding something together,
though not mattering much in the overall scheme of things.
i am nothing to you.
we can cut eachothers names into our hearts and arms,
but then all we'll have is names...
youre already ready to forget me.
shattered mirror reflects
a million times
the secrets...
the sheets are dancing
we are ghosts...
we are shadows on a blank canvas
we have no defenition,
yet moment to moment
my persective of you is more clear then ever.
this isnt beautiful,
you arent everything,
and the folds will soon be smoothed away....
but
this is real
and dirty
and clean.
and we are everything and nothing....
and into eachothers skin...
we are disapearing,
