words from a mind that is only cracked.

I Am, I Am

i am the moth that flew too close to your flame.
i am the blouse you left out in the rain.
i am the thought at the back of your mind.
i am the toothbrush that you left behind.

i'm the smell of perfume that still sits in the air.
i'm the little framed pictures that hang by the stairs.
i'm the spare key that you left on my table.
i'm hanging on like a car on a cable.

i am icarus, falling out of the sky.
i'm the scars and tattoos that cover your thighs.
i'm our initials carved into the frost.

i am something you loved and something you lost.
