Poetry: On Purpose

Poetry: Fire

I’ll miss the lemon verbena tea otherwise x It’s an ache in my chest that burns With fury and fire Hot breath at the coal face Of a steaming train heading into oblivion Pure. Fucking. Longing. Breathe in, breathe out I don’t know, my lover What it was that you ever truly felt for me…

Poetry: Beauty
