from their owners with every passing second

as i walk away

a damn flier.

on the ground
for just a moment,
dear, just a (moment,)

earth shatters.

but you are steel and
if i am paper,
you must certainly
be steel.
because i
am a flier.
i was built to tear,
but i will be
a damn flier.

open your arms,
ready, steady
for landing.
crash head first.
(we're gonna fucking
die.)
we weren't meant
to be okay.
dive into your arms,
choke, choke.
don't let me go.
don't let me
