Pastel Colours
zipped my heartbeat in a pencil case ,
stashed your broken heart in a sock drawer ,
caught your sent and trapped it in my hoodie ,
kept your voice behind my closet door ,
wired the moments into fairy lights ,
and swept your lies beneath my bed .
all to hide the innocence
that remains in sight
inside my head .
