(are you strong enough now?)
indigo. sky soft and velvet, wide eyes you
touch me
i shiver in the cold
wrap my arms around you
murmur all the words you always told me
to say.
harsh sunset long gone it stabbed our vision screamed brass alarms but now
it's dark, we're safe
(you're iron to protect us, red-brown rusting in the snowdrifts)
come on, hold each other close
and we'll share kisses under the blanketing shadows
just like you always promised. i've no real heart to give you
but spasming under my fingertips yours is big enough for the both of us (why do you need such a big heart, my boreal wind, my iron maiden)
no moon in sight.
hey what's the matter i thought you wanted me?
(bruised sky wide eyes you push against my chest)
silence.
