Ancient Hearts

Ancient hearts aching too soon to die
And the stars we’ve stumbled upon, 
only to suffocate beneath pages of glass, stained with tears
To never find me fetal in despair 
crying out your name 
Trembling in dreams 
as your voice silently moves over me
I still breathe whispered images 
our lips violently painted 
You haunt me in quiet places now 
void of your song
Let rage find solace in storms
And I hold onto hope that my fingers will always find themselves curling 
the ribs of your cage

All the grief that swallows us whole is pooling over the edges and bleeding into everything; changing the shape of what it touches.
