Testo di Roan

Black feather On the carpet In Vivien’s back room Where you kept me warm A glimpse that one day I'll believe in Someone accepting My physical form If I wasn't so broken You could have me Body and soul Body and soul But for now Just take this A body unacceptable and abandoned Unacceptable and abandoned But you were so unwavering Such a pretty boy Just a sweet prince A knight in black lipstick holding me down And when I couldn't breathe I watched you transform Into a flock of ravens Not long after sunrise You were showing me Divinity What we are In camaraderie A world within The sweetness of your skin Escape everywhere inwards-pointing And always pointing in So I remembered Every word you said Breadcrumbs leading me back To the exit you showed me Points on my body Unhealed tattoos Soft hips, soft lips Incantations Between the carpet and your claws And the caws between sleeps Sudden wingbeats
