we held hands on the last night on earth our mouths filled with dust
We kissed in the fields and under trees
Screaming like dogs
Bleeding dark into leaves it was empty on the edge of town but we knew everyone floated along the bottom of the river so we walked through the waste where the road curved into the sea and the shattered seasons lay
And the bitter smell of burning was on you like a disease in our cancer of passion you said
Death is the midnight runner
The sky had come crashing down like the news of an intimate suicide we picked up the shards formed them into shapes of stars that wore like an antique wedding dress the echoes of the past broke the hearts of the unborn as the farris wheel silently slowed to a stop the few insects skittered away in hopes of a better pastime i kissed you at the apex of the maelstrom and asked if you would accompany me in a quick fall
But you make me realize that my ticket wasn't good for two i rode alone
You said
The cinders are falling like snow there is poetry in despair
And we sang with unrivaled beauty
Bitter elegies of savagery and eloquence of blue and grey strange
We ran down desperate streets and carved our names into the flesh of the city the sun has stagnated somewhere beyond the rim of the horizon and the darkness is a mystery of curves and lines still
We lay under the emptiness and drifted slowly outward
And somewhere in the wilderness we found salvation scratched into the earth like a message
