Hey, I Want to Die

May 2015

pretty boy, kissing me,


lemonade and a snow white dream


i don’t smell her on his collar


but i can see the blood


a hazy, late drive home


breaking silence, treading mud


i climb my way straight up you


up, up to the top


at the tallest point,


i can hear the lightning shock


if i could cut you open


can you tell me what i’d see?


if it’s not a wishbone,


it isn’t you, it isn’t me
