Cry Sometimes by Kate Earl

unbridled

baby in a broken sling

they clip my wings:
hard.

fly to me

things cry
like they're two weeks old
and

somehow

you are that lack
of air
within my lungs:

a flu on time.
and i miss you.

baby,
i miss it.

i am hoarse and
things don't look the same

they shaved
all those manes
off of their heads

the pretty horses
raise their paws

they prance
all over my heart

and

they don't even
know
what it looks like.

baby,
i miss you.
young things

are born
without you.
