Lyrics

it’s been three days now
since i last spoke to you
with our skin tingling ice and your
lips dyed blue.

and when you told me those things
so coloured and deep
i didn’t know how i could
not let you seep
into my head and my room
and my skin underlining,
as you pushed your way through
cracking spine, intertwining.

and when you appear in my mind,
you exist in dim red lighting,
in wavering seconds and
lines almost biting
the corners
of my ears repeating soft sounds,
the silhouettes of past laughter
so inky and round.
