black hole blooming in your heart.

blinking lights,

a glittering thousand of beating hearts

and,

i can taste mine,

burning stars lingering on the tip of my tongue

rotten-sweet

how many stars have died inside of you?

how many stars in you have lost their light?

lighting up your world,

in a confetti of fireworks

exploding in a flash vibrant colours

taking your breath, capturing your eyes

then,

gone

swallowed by the darkness of your sky

and you are left to stare at a

hollow abyss

tasting emptiness

each piece of you lost to life

and i can taste mine, vivid

lingering death rotting in my mouth

eroding each part of me, till there’s nothing left

but. an void of emptiness.

tell me,

how many stars have died inside of you?

how many stars in you have lost their light?
