Tonight

Tonight

there is no light for me to follow

no wind blowing, northwards

to guide me home

 

only an egg whites moon

tucked into the corner of an

unblinking sky

Tonight 

 

there is only you...

me...

and a wild need thrashing against,

skin and bones

 

with an unstitching of lips

and the suckles of honeyed tongues

I'm unraveled from your fingertip

and lain against the bare of your heart

Tonight

 

I serve no longer as a stringed reminder,

But a fond, fond

memory
