i am jealous of the mist that hangs above the road
makes me dream of being steam rising off of you<\/h3>\n

would you blame me if i chased away tears with my tongue
or wormed myself
beneath occipital bones<\/h3>\n

i want to rip out your scar tissue with my teeth, see you as bare as i beg you to be<\/h3>\n

i do not mean to run so hot
i cannot tell if i am evaporating off of you or if you\u2019re dissolving against me
frothing and aerating until you\u2019re gone
dissipating and exsiccating until i am yours<\/h3>\n

i am afraid of drowning, i keep letting go
it is not you
i just can\u2019t find a way to tell you
if you pull me under with you, i will not surface<\/h3>\n

i am going to drown, you are going to take me with you,
i am going to boil alive,
you are going to crash
into land<\/h3>\n
