Thunderclap migraine
shrapnel
Exhausted in exhaustion
Weighing heavy like a radiation shield
So this is where my mind falls victim…or is it my heart?
Dreams bring him to me but reality makes a clusterfuck of clarity
I think I’m insanity in the sugary froth of an over ripe peach
Bite and juice runs through my fingers trailing the shorelines of blood theorems and complexities of single-cell laughter
I think I’ve gone mad…or is it merely my want?
A shadow of comfort stoic beside my dreaming self
And I, first over the shoulder glanced before rolling to him, embracing a single leg in my arms
His fingers ran my hair and jaw line
Exhausted in exhaustion
Weighing heavy like a radiation shield
So this is where my mind falls victim…or is it my heart?
Dreams bring him to me but reality makes a clusterfuck of clarity
I think I’m insanity in the sugary froth of an over ripe peach
Bite and juice runs through my fingers trailing the shorelines of blood theorems and complexities of single-cell laughter
I think I’ve gone mad…or is it merely my want?
A shadow of comfort stoic beside my dreaming self
And I, first over the shoulder glanced before rolling to him, embracing a single leg in my arms
His fingers ran my hair and jaw line
His voice
soft with, “Sleep, baby, sleep”
I don’t dream in my armor, but I sleep in its guard
Wonder of wonders to my conscious mind
A hard metallic echo as my entire self jolted
I don’t dream in my armor, but I sleep in its guard
Wonder of wonders to my conscious mind
A hard metallic echo as my entire self jolted
Body naked and armor strewn about the floor
