I wish the skies would open up
The impending grey could swallow me whole
Maybe for once I could take a break
From life
No I don’t want to die
I just want the sky to swallow me whole
So I could crawl into the grey I feel
And rest
I wanna tell you I love you
but the words go missing
like little soldiers retreating
locked in my throat
banging harder against the walls
until
they retreat further
falling down my throat
I swallow them down like pills
they rest in my big toe
I often wonder if they are going to jump back out
unlatch the cage and tell you
when I look in your eyes I float
when I see faces pass I hope their yours
I want to ask you
if I can play the prince in your fairy tale
sweep you off your feet
run you far from the bad guy
give you everything you ever needed like love
I wanted to hold you close
hear your heart beat
until it mimics mine
but for now I will keep these stored
in the cracks between my feet
waiting for
You
to unlatch the cage
