extinguish

Short and longing. Love, of course.

I am measured by my lack

I am pleasured with this fight

Once then twice you turned your back 

I have now put out the light

Gaping now where breath once graced

A hole made solely from this spite

Ripping, roaring, fully spaced

I have now put out the light

Scintillating, we were once

Innocence and promise bright

Exhaustion lashes on all fronts

Watch me now blow out my light
