the walls in our hut should be padded

by Olivia Weinkein

you push yourself into my lips.
a crush, crushing
and i'm fascinated. this couldn't
be any sweeter even with
a thousand suicides serenading the
way.
i am a flower-child and i'm opening.
my petals are flawed but still
they are safe enough for you to
lie inside, stay a while. i will
hold your smile in the most
secret parts of myself.

you will never have reason for
anyone else.
a crush, crushing
and i'm coming down, hard.
fixated on the madness of it all.

the way away
in love, i fall.
