invisible

wore a pretty dress
felt empty
no makeup day

said he didn't have time

to listen

but he'd come through
if there was no where else,

take my shoulder
none other could hold him

i cried, sopped pathetic through silk
like a fool
dropping blood to the shark school
inside his glass

he drops
it shatters,
up so high

i shield his laugh
and the world falling with it

spoke too true
for the prince of evasion,

his dust chasing cheer from memory
