Serpentine

Rain poured through the night
And when I woke, I'd been crying
You and I were snakes iridescent wrapped up in the sheets
White hot, writhing for release
Willfully blind

Made you come to life
But in my jaws a knife
When you realized all the blood there you started to scream
And I gasped I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
For everything

And I hate myself, hate myself, hate myself for needing
To leave
