she called it CoincidenceA Poem by Chloe Madison Taylor.Borrowed a gentle enough hand. like watching you from another room All day in and out of a spotted bed, tears make room for themselves. I want to make the world explode. If I don’t find some release we may all combust “if you don’t say something I may die.” I hate you only just a bit more than I can’t stand to be around me. The moon was a nymph holding us each by our tongue But you slipped away when my eyes were closed. I hope this doesn’t take too long. If I’m burning in the morning Restless won’t be a long enough word Start over. I’ll be somebody else, anybody. Hold my hand, ask if I see the moon. Neither of us is making it out of the car without a few extra pieces. I want to throw up. Fall asleep until you change your mind. Leave myself somewhere safe For you to find when you’re ready. I hate us both for this. I’m a professional when it comes to coping. I’m making the incision. Separating you from my affection as we Fail to speak. Overdriven overdrive. I can’t stand you for doing this. Want me or want me. Shapeshifting I can only see from the corner of my eye Shifting from yours and mine giving and taking every time and mind you, The picture is much larger than you are ever ready to see. Colliding on your lips, on your veins. There was no contract. Walk away. This is a joke. I don’t get it. Scorpion love. Fate holds tension in it’s chest We wonder too much. karma boy, moon man. I’ve been going without people for a long time. I could have sworn I was worth something before. My day has been constant. Like a tree never without breeze. I try to slow my mind to a drip but it floods and If the water is listening then it knows I’m a fool. Nobody keeps their cool long enough. Life is a slow drop to the middle, hold your breath © 2011 Chloe Madison Taylor.Author's Note
