someone asked me what I thought of you, once

By Malice In Wonderland

I said


you were the sun
warming my.bed
and the fire in my eyes

the fight in the corner
backburner places
keeping me alive

you speak
In steel.spinesong
malady
the glitter
in our ash and.snow.apocolypse
bleeding hues
of perfection
to bomb blasted reality
amidst the searing truths of mankind

our fingers wove together
like antique threading
on an old war uniform
impeccable and weathered
seamless
and beautiful

the tides crest
on lunar smiles
unknown
in the comforts of paradise
that someone will find.

someday
