All yours

Catch a bird

Just to hear it flutter

Cup your hands around it’s tiny body 

Feel it struggle 

Put your arms around my broken heart 

Watch the poison pour out 

Stand in the acidic flame

Slow burning

Mesmerizing in its death dance

Licking your feet

Kissing your calves

As my heart implodes, maybe you’ll finally see 

What you filled me up with

Take it, take all of it

Inhale deeply

Starch, creeping, sickly sweet 

It’s all yours, it’s always been yours
