When you unravel
From the weight of it all
Call your lover
And get angry
Because you’re not
Wrapped in his arms
Get three hours sleep
And starve yourself
Until there’s dumplings
Scream
Into your microphone
Until your throat
Feels as raw
As your heart
Ride your bicycle
Chasing the light
That is left
Before the darkness
Leaves you sleepless
Once again
Fighting to see through
The tears that leave
Your cheeks stained
With the red dust
From your wheels
Sliding down the
Gravel roads
Until breathless
And throwing up
Your heartbeat
Letting the fireflies
Guide you home
So you can
Finally
Come undone...
