Swept aside the lush bush
Unfamiliar tingle binding my heart
About to explode into stardusts
Crumpled, and no,
I cannot see a happy ending approaching
I need a place to lean
ii.
The air sting like guitar strings between throbbing fingers
How much could I stand the soreness of my wishes, biting and slashing
Because they are broken
iii.

Not otherwise of buzzing lights and chattering kneecaps

A mouthful of schemes and lies
A burden
A constantly lit dried wood
But the fire never really burn

About how cold my hands were
She chuckled and offered me hers to hold
I took them in doubt, wearily
They were frozen
vi.
Probably I have accepted,
The differences
