hey don't go so slow down the crest meadows of my atrium
if I could keep you, you would disintegrate within a decade;
redressed morsels hand in hand
but never replicating the careful colors of your iris.
so instead,
I tried to count every hair on your head,
and I lost count quite quickly.
began plucking all the grey,
endlessly,
needlessly
we stood on the fourth floor
noose tied to the only tree in the clearing,
trying to tape the dead leaves back to the branches
I'm still wondering if you ever catch the sounds between the syllables -
the words, the phrases I don't have the strength to say,
I hope I find it someday
