i thought in you
i could escape
from me,
from the loudness
in my head
and the silence
in my heart.
i thought i could
drown my sorrows
in the depths of your eyes,
that your soft lips
would graze my scars
and their warmth
would heal me.
i waited for your arms
to hold me,
for your beauty
to paint me
like a rainbow
after a storm.
i wanted your spirit
to revive me
but i died waiting
and my body
was never mine
again.
you are not a savior
and i cannot be saved.
