#sadsun

and on the seventh day
the energy had built up
the marks on my skin had broadened
the fear in my veins
overflowing
sneaked out
and turned into water

my brain’s branches
extended
lavishly crawling
silently moving outwards
through the corners of my eyes
uncertain excitement
dripping into uncertain lies

chewed lips running wildly
on the strawberry sun
lungs pumping frantically
clouding my heart with all
that’s been left undone
and rancid hairs robotically murmuring
‘just one…just one’
