Sweet, ineligible figures
Scribbled deliberately
Over tendons and veins
In ignorance of cold rain
And intoxicated, painful
Thoughts, I remember—

Time writes everything
Backwards

Blond hair
Red
Brunette with
Brown eyes and
Broken smiles

Carved into the shallow
Ridges of my left hand

Left to simmer over
Decades
Left to dwarf old scars
Left in the name of love

(Love is
Only a word,
Remember)

In the name of
Blood soaked and
Saturated shirts
And Broken boxes

The words—
The words destroy everything.

This sent shivers up my spine. There is something cold and dark that surrounds time and the control it possesses is awesome. An outstanding write that is moving and intelligent.

Damn. Just... damn.

Abraham - this is powerful, papable, potent. It somehow breaks my heart and lifts it at the same time. I read it more times than makes any sort of sense. I'll read it again. And again.

How beautiful, this. How extraordinary, you.
