you say

you smile
.wonder and suppose.
that we will never be

a broken tear:
a splash of a million-
billion

she told me.

please,
hold me as i burn
[the ashes,
they wont grace your blessed flesh]

i just need your eyes
to give me the faith
i lack

an odd sense
of reassurance

where all had turned
away from me
[in shame]
[in fear]
[in a unknown selfishness]

look it them now-
all popular
and numb.

i know i changed
but i still hang
. w . i . d . e .
]open[
exposed to all..
ravaged by
the elements

[a blackness where a love should be]
help me find it
please, i beg
help me find it
before i rot away
