8/1/20
he bleached my eyes
knowing the pain of blinding me would be the distraction
from his blistering claws that harrowed at my skin
seeking
hunting
scavaging
for my graphite heart
my defeated spirit
my severed soul
unbeknownst that he would only find fragments-his fingertips were formed of my blood
¤¤¤
for my young katlyn, having met you is the reason i believe in fate. may your wisdom beyond your years carry you safely.
