Forget You

This is the moment I'm afraid of,
the slide of the train derailed,
my breath a white gasp
against my teeth
as I run my body down into the sidewalk
in an attempt to fling myself
into your arms
before you shatter away from me.
I have the blood of your heart
in my ears
and the beat of your body
on my tongue
as I attempt to kiss
our relationship away from my skin,
peel your lips clean
from my hair, gag and swallow
your scent below the level
of conscious memories
of this day.
I'm crying and praying
to forget you.

Broken Rails

Soft tick.

Deep thunk

ringing through the cells.

You can hear the drip drop

of the blood

falling to the floor

and sticking.

It's not like you'll get rid of me soon.

Crack of the eggs

and the shredding of the bones.

Catch me

as I go sliding down the rail

and into your arms,

dragging you down with me,

off the road and onto

the broken tracks.

There's a train coming

with a broken wheel, 

barreling down the tracks.

I want to be with you

and hear you scream

when it happens...
