Verse by @sable.crown

every train sounds like leaving from here the moon is a coin i cannot spend the streetlamp buzzed like a held breath the sea does not remember any of our names

the streetlamp buzzed like a held breath i traded my quiet for a louder kind of quiet i counted every streetlight home the lemon tree outlived the marriage

i keep the receipts of everything i felt i saved the last cigarette for a braver night i keep the receipts of everything i felt the church bell is just a bell on tuesdays

i wore your city like a borrowed coat we drank the cheap thing and called it a feast the kettle screams and i let it the river takes what it is offered

you never asked and i never stopped answering
