Lavender, Pink, and Red

bruised lavender and pink
like the last light of day
please let night fall over this
i want to breathe out
praying for disaster,
for the waxing red moon
weep and wail o rich people
the new world is coming soon
i always knew,
crying from flesh, that
this has never been my time
it's not my real life
it gets lonely, someone's
missing at the mirror
held apart for so long,
would you even recognize me?
two wings in a raincloud,
aren't you coming back for me?
lavender and pink
like the first light of day,
the skin around our cheekbone
and on our thighs
o to touch
more than myself
o for fingers in the earth
where the markets were
swept off on the
flood of your anger
it's going to be ugly
o, i want it to be ugly
it's going to hurt, please
let me be the one to make it hurt
