Popcorn

we weren't even close to fairy tales. but

your hands clasped in mine felt like satiny silk

on a wedding dress made for

this warmth that pricks my heart full of

blood and oxygen that tastes of you

I just want someone

To hold me like you did,

But in a way I'm not suffocating

Under their poisonous grip. 

I want to fall in love,

As October comes into focus;

Running through those woods,
