"."

this bed is wide enough for two.
with eyes still closed, my hand searches for you.
the rain makes a rhythm of it's own outside,
the road striped like tigers at night.

i had spiders in my eyes while moth's tested your back.
i had spiders in my eyes.

those 9 months slipped through my fingers like sand
faster as it neared the end.
the edges burn like parchment on fire,
the embers of melancholy grow ever higher.

i had spiders in my eyes while moth's tested your back.
i had spiders in my eyes.

remember the nights of sleepless discovery?
the nights we stared at the walls
pain evident, the back of our minds.
we were never enough for that apartment dorm.

i had spiders in my eyes while moth's tested your back.
i had spiders in my eyes.
