More from ~Miss-Deathwish

tremors curled over a porcelain mouth, i let my dinner fall out.

it's 9:33 p.m. and i think about saturday,
when rain hit the pavement like firecrackers,
the sky darker than the shadows behind the shower curtain.

       i know there's a spider burrowed between those plastic folds.

funny thing about deep spaces; they feel better
when they're stuffed full. i think about how your fingertips
made my skin feel soft and breakable, how your tongue was warm,
about how my legs wouldn't stop shaking and you laughed, whispering,
"you okay?"

       well, there's this experience known as an aftershock.

hands clutching cold tile,
epitaph erased here lie the deep-seated sins
of the hollow-hearted youth,

          of the kids who lie
          alone
          with clammy hands
          and half-mast eyes

gripped by late night desires
and words carved into tabletops,

          words telling of
          wet cold sheets
          and
          wet hot limbs:

here lie the unspoken truths
of the insignificants,

          of the ones who sit
          lonely
          on mattress edges
          and hard floors

while their mouths hang open
and their tongues dry out.
