said
I had a jar of sunlight
when I woke this morning
that filled my room
spilled over the windowsill
drenched the roof and dripped down sweetly
streamed through the grass and soaked into the ground
and dyed the world bright gold
so I reeled down the stairs, drunk on glitterandshine,
hands wrapped around my jar of sunlight to keep warm
I was seeing sun in you, and
liquid gold
was pouring from my hands
then you with your little box
of hate
smooth black cold candy
in a silver tin
it was like ice going down
and bitter
and I didn't want to open my mouth
but I trust you
i'm sick now
don't please give me anymore
sun
because I've had too much and
I dropped the jar it's broken-
Just blood and shattered glass
In a pool of gold and vomit
