We Melt Together
Rainbows melt together looking like moonless midnight tea.
We melt together.
She melts into misguided memories.
Treasuries of trauma,
Blue and pink in the sauna,
Shopping trips brought on by blips of boredom.
A dress sewn carefully out of dainty floss-hair whispers.
Even indigo gets to live forever.
Like a feeling, it never truly flees.
Like a sunrise, it’ll always come back the next day.
She will not live forever.
There will be sunrises she will miss.
And rainbows trapped out-of-doors.
Like she goes deeper and deeper within her mind,
Pieces, excavated,
Personalities, deteriorated,
Thoughts which do not have time for hatred.
She is coffee, quilts, vans and Bonds,
She is sad, she is glad; miserable too.
She is curious, life-like, wishful, barren.
She is a scream of anger, a giggle of love.
She is a tear in the ocean of sorrow.
She held the Love title for so long, but now,
She melts into reality,
Dragging me,
We melt together.
