secrets

i have known the secrets of the night
the grass is wet and the midnight air is cold without a coat
in shadowed hours is a grief that breaks me with its walls

and i have colored your lines from here in
brown and gold,
blending through the trappings of my plains
escaping through the sky

i am just a girl
i am not invincible
my curves fit the width of your palms very well,
and i am here alone

i have known the secrets of the night
