Once

Once I bit into your soul and bled.
My mouth went up in flames and my lips burned.
I shoveled in your soul and choked on it.
It got lodged in my throat, too big, too small for that space deep inside me.
My eyes watered, so I spit it out and cried.

  2. Heavy. So much emotion on this. But beautiful as well.
