i, the ever-scared lion by *ohsostarryeyed:iconohsostarryeyed:



i am breathing for the urge to tell you something beautiful

i do not kiss with lips but
with sweet bones thrust sunward,
wondering what it is like to be embraced
by the arms of a skeleton

the king and queen and monarch (butterfly)
crowns of roses or holly,
winter brings cold and thoughts of you

i, the ever-scared lion,
shudder in my sheets

i can show you fear in a handbasket,
the girth of the sun snapping leather belts
until our faces fall to the earth

the bottle was broken,
message pecked by gulls-
i hope you know i said i loved you
and the world will fall at your feet

we are but lonely dolls
and your murmurs of eternity
pull my heart asunder-

we are neither together
nor forever

minor punctuation- almost went entirely without, but it looked like it was toooo unfinished.
