As we were cuddling on white blankets
Our souls fled to the wilderness
Where we discovered an estranged heart
Snoring like a sad rhythm
While sleeping in a molded nest
***
I believed my body could sense my soul departing
As if I were the victim of a trance
Which made me question my reasoning
***
Once broken hearts fell outside of the chest
One is abandoned and is perished in sorrow
There may be humans where there are hearts
However, no human being can live without a heart
***
Therein appeared that girl
With open chest and arms
The body was drenched with blood
And the teeth were as red as hell
***
I kept having goosebumps
For the blood smelled like my blanket
The heart’s muscles and veins were thin as my skin
***
I thus took the tiny heart
It was soft on the outside
But heavy like a wet sponge on the inside
***
As I was heading back to my dreamless sleep
My eyes touched this girl’s skin
As she was caressing her opened chest
We melted together
She was me in no world
I was her in a heartless dream
