“at least we gave them the chase of a lifetime”
she tried to say through the glass in her windpipe
but his lifeline had been severed
ending their endeavor
to diffuse the ruse, together
that no one can run forever
“I can’t say why my foot forgot to brake
and I’m sorry but to leave me in this state
it’s you who should be giving the apology
as I cannot survive a day here without your company”
“Perchance,
did you forget to repent
somewhere between the accident and everything we did?
As for heaven,
I guess it’s out of the question
and so without intervention
of divinity
infinity is calling”
“o happy shards of glass
take me to nothingness
heart on my ragged sleeve
this is thy makeshift sheathe
come, bitter conduct, come
unsavory chaperon
led my life on the run
it caught up so take me home”
fingers star crossed
to no avail
but you knew the tale
supported by 13 fans who also own “Star Crossed Fingers”
