I stand aside
(choking on the scent of lilies)
trying my best to breathe through the sensation of my lungs ablazeI've washed this sweater a thousand times
but it still smells like you
(like vanilla and lavender)
it still smells like death
(but it was your favourite)I burned all the lilies in my garden
until ash coated my chrysanthemums
but I still cling to your threadbare sweater
