slipping through my fingers
By Northstar
grease,
I slide
myself
on top
of you
sweaty
flesh
telling
the truth
heavy
breaths
caught
in my chest
your eyes
roll through
seven deaths
I can't
hear you
though
you're screaming
colored red
synapses
streaming
fall to
the floor
collapsing
heaving
hallucinations
make-believing
contemplations
tea-leaf
readings
empty cups
visions
bleeding
crystal ball
cracked
and shattered
the pieces
drop away
fragmented
tattered
my hands
cant grasp
what once
had mattered
