a quiet yearning perhaps?
you could quite literally kill me with kindnessblue is the only colour that understands
purple is poisonous, a warning
and green, green is getting there
i felt your desire, burning
i tolerated it
i got queasy
i hate the way you smell
it isn't your fault
i just need you to know
you repulse me
i like you but i, we, could never... fuck
i feel as though i should be sorry
i'm not. sorry
my womb feels like it is bursting
a quiet yearning perhaps
i taught her everything so she could defend herself but really it was me that caused all that harm
kindness never really felt real coming from my bones
