watching - purple lights flicker on the horizon - i wait
for you to come.
it takes long.
this is home, violet melody, brilliant fake - running
in between.
i put on a face - a smile
that brings you lanterns - raised like lightning bugs
on a fence, i run.
you will be here soon.
i pretend - i know - what i am doing - crying on the porch,
fake blue blood running
down like tears. it is the night, and i
wait for you to come.
