who are you?
there you are again. sleepwalking through MY dreams as though they were your own, birthed and suffered under in your own mind. just as the edges begin to blur and the air tastes like copper, you burst through the paper mache doors of my dreamscape and claim my visions as your own. you can't do this to me. after much ado, you exposed me
& i became accustomed to your florescence.
now, you want to push me back down, into the perfectlypreserved darkness from which you coaxed me.
and you smile like a mime
and you turn on your playful pout
and you read your cue cards with monotone chords:
"but why? i am as sound as i am skyhigh. let me hold you, let me throw you, you'll love it. my heart is black & vacuous,& my love is glamourous like the oiledskinpink inside of a shell. oh yes, & you are a beautiful ruiner, & please don't forget that i only cry when i smile, and that i only dance because i am tragic."
furthermore,
you are everything i wish to forget, and all i wish to cling to, as impossible as you are to unravel and digest.
