My Words and I

 

First, we hold hands with darkness

We moan like lovers underneath her

Predators of light

I'll let my own come through,

I do not need you

 

We come like hard days

the tip of a knife

We know where to cut to make it quick

I know how to fuck,

make them die happy

 

We can be alone. 

We can stare at trees. 

We can cum thinking of someone else

I can make you believe anything

 

The tips of trees are saviours for us

but we get greedy

and they're all the same

 

But I have run out of words to

explain to you the difference.
