Poetry: I told you

by Kelan Putnam

Created on: March 14, 2009

GONE




do not bring your hope to me

stay safe

that is not my place





leave without words

spoken





wash your face first





your feet too

heavy,

they do not fit

inside your shoes





everything you say

is a lie

to clean up

again

the last time
we cleaned up
we were
drowning
