the whole city screams
her name and he
breathes out smoke
and stardust it's cold
and so with blue tinted
lips and a cigarette in one
hand he dials her number
and stands outside her door
she opens it
asks if he's insane
stares at him
she looks at his dull eyes that
only glimmer because
they're glazed over
from long nights with the burn
of alcohol and tears
she rolls her eyes and
lets him in
just to kiss
his cold icy lips
and warm his freezing bones
yet again
he whispers against
her neck and tells her
it's been a long six months
and she sighs
because god does she know
how these last six
months have been
