tonight
tonight i love you
from beneath a yellow washcloth
with paint stains, soaked in cool water
tonight i love you beneath
red eyes rimmed in pain
and the dark circles
harvesting my white flesh beneath
my lids
i love you beneath hands thrown
against my forehead in release
in frustration
tonight i love you beneath a guilt
ridden world and sighs of remorse
emitted from lips
that long for some attention
