Blow
Wide eyed my five year old mind cowered
Ten feet flames engulfed the metal frame
Ten minutes and no rescue had arrived
Tiny hands held safe, huge eyes held fixated
No sound, no screams, my ears were ringing
No escape, carnage blocked the way home
Twisted black shell that could have been a coffin
But I was too young to know

I dunno what to put my phone light hurts my eyes x x x love you
Trace a line of what we mean
By our silence
Long held, rush and falter
Don't hold it in any longer
You've used my hand
To wipe away unwanted tears
Butterfly kisses and bruises
That fade
Skin and bone
Drag letters of love
Between your shoulders
And feel you shudder
Fast breaths and eye contact
We are still alive
Teeth in lip and arched back
Collapse
