The Salinity Of Rainwater- June 14 2017

You had so much going for you, youngster, beautiful monster, you could stand out in the daylight and feel bright. Now you’re older and you’re dying, out with your palms open to catch the rain, now you’re in pain, love, and you’re not breathing.

When the rivers end in oceans and you no longer say my name, I’ll be there. In the space you pretend not to see and the things you say you don’t care about, that old box of toys and those crayoned drawings.

I remember it all,

oh how I fall,

when the ghosts tell me you’re still here

 

and you’re not.
