Human from Bath White by 50FOOTWAVE

“nah, just hungry i guess
i’ll sleep in the attic”
bone-broke slow or whipped cold
i live clean
breathtaking
you took my breath away
breath by breath
you taught me how to breathe
i guess i’ll crash in the attic
palms up
i love clean
big star in the dark
note to self: it’s your fault
back slowly out the doorway
you can’t win
i never wanted that twisted demon who wears me down and winds me up
blinds me to heaven
i wanted
i wanted that twisted human who stares me down and flies me up
flies me to heaven
the crime of it
the punishment
the crime of it
the punishment
passed out in
passed out in the hospital
where
where else could i
where else could i go?
and you were mine
you were my
you were my only human
and you
you were
you were my
you were my only human
twice i catch your eyes’ rainbows
oil slick tears
