Shallow and still
Hardly beating
Scared you’ll hear it
So silent and so still
It’s jumping out my chest
I can’t believe
I’m falling
Where’s the wings
Beneath my feet?
They’re stirring in my
Belly
Causing butterflies to
Meet.
Crowded and flustered
They spill onto my
Tongue.
Cotton Candy, wild fires
I’m about to come
Undone.
