like the soft
beat, beat, beat,
in your chest,
i feel you and i
both
have transgressed.
i want to take a step
back, back, back.
you whisper it's nothing that
we cannot
care, care, care
to put away.
why are you asking me to
stay, stay, stay?
are you going to leave me
just. like. this.
will you ever be something
i. will. always. miss.
i wish i had tasted
death, death, death
before i ever saw you take my
breath, breath, breath.
you hit like a drum
beat, beat, beat.
to what has this night
come, come, come?
