SIXTEEN
rose petals tumble from these lips

My cheeks are printed
with rose petals.
They are all I have left, crushed
against my flesh.
It's cracking beneath the crimson petals,
the porcelain of you and I.
Please hold on a little longer.
Please glue what these bones of ours
could not keep together.

 Are you a cat person or a dog person? 
𐎀 I personally have both, but I definitely lean more on the dog side!
