[Honorary Mentions] Yearning






I wish you could crawl into my skin

Into my eye sockets, so I could see everything your lenses do

Rip open my ribcage and hear my beating heart in your ear

I’ll gladly give up my air so you can breathe—

Engulf me

You’ll always be warm between my lungs and kidneys

If you get thirsty you can drink blood from my arteries

You can feed me sweet lies when I try to die

Your voice, the only waves in my ear

Your presence is all I crave

Live inside me, never leave

Because living as I am now

is empty
