Last night

You came in my dream again.

With your broken voice

And your dying breath.

You woke me up to a night

That swallowed me whole

Like the snake

That swallowed my hen’s eggs.

You lost your way, you lost me too.

I looked for you in every ally

Every face, every voice,

Every stop, every start.

And then I looked for you inside my heart.

I found you there

Blind and scared

Whispering, whimpering

You tore me apart.

I took you from there

And threw you

Out in the cold

To suffer

In the long night

That wailed, outside my dream.

Now I feel the poison

You spread inside me

Slowly turning my blood black

Drop by drop.

I sit here thinking

It will happen

Tomorrow night

You’ll come in my dream again.
