I"m trying to medicate. Swallow my pity. Wish you"d stay with me. Tell me it"s easy. Cut me a bouquet. Don"t let go. Lace your fingers around my throat. Make it safe. I"m afraid. I swear I don"t believe in much. A halo below. A halo above. I"ve got your petal on the tip of my tongue. Call it a ritual. Call it protection. I"m trying to medicate. Erase my body. Replace it with anything. Place it beside you.
