Touch

You reached me from far Landed too strong Scarlet juice flying in the air Food coloring from the heart Splashing in the breath of lost souls I whipped rivers inwards My cheeks dry outside, floods in my pores Lips tight like locks I looked fierce eyes as open as defiant as my new shape could conform Mocking the wrecking ball who came to Demolish And ended up melting in the heat of my burning soul

That is one if not the best most moving written pieces i have ever read. The line “ i whipped rivers inwards” oh what a slash to anyones feelings, brilliant. I really admire your style of work, it reminds me of some moments i use, maybe we have been too the same box of life parts.
