she is lying here
wounds exposed
she's bleeding
and in silence she screamsno one hears her really
she's too quiet
for this worldi wrap her in a blanket made of silk
i lay her head towards my chest
i cover her face in my small hands
my eyes fill up with tears
and i cry for years
for her pain
and every drop from my eye
builds an ocean around me and her
as the water starts to rise
i cry harder
soon our faces will reach the surface
and we'll barely be able to breathe
i'll take one big breath
for us both
and then
let the water cover us whole
and when i open my mouth
and water stars to fill my lungs
i will interweave with her
we will turn into
the darkest secrets of the ocean
