you can’t look me in the eye, i take sad pleasure in the fact.
your heart beats in my chest, my heart beast in the corner.
i want to be reacquainted with you And you say nothing, you sit

So he walks up to me and it’s like, okay who are we kidding? I said, this dream only works if you play along, And he smiled, said all the right things, But he said them all wrong.
And I said to him that I gave up the ghost, ’Looked at me and said who, Didn’t I mention him, cry for an hour or two? Maybe I’m mixing up lives, just another love to chew, And so he said baby, That’s on you.

“(seen 00:57) persephone: i was never a god. the promegranates you gave me were soaked in the ichor none of us wanted to admit was there. i have swallowed plenty; it has been flowing in my veins so rapidly the blood was spat out, reborn. when you stain the canvas with gold it forgets the crimson is still under. (seen 1:00) hades: you were always a queen. i only polished your skin”
— it has been glowing since. is it the fruit? (demi ev.)

“I’ve always had a dream of being a light-house keeper, absolutely alone, with no one to interrupt my reading or just sitting –and although such dreams are sternly dismissed at 16 or so they always haunt one a bit.”
— Elizabeth Bishop - from Words in Air: The Complete Correspondence Between Elizabeth Bishop and Robert Lowell

in a competition with the stars who looks away first they draw you in lightly, until youre immersed, ripe as a berry, fit to burst you’ll blink in unison unrehearsed, unwatched, unnoticed time speeds in reverse look away slowly, you're only of earth
