Bleeding together
Press headphones on to my ears
Close my eyes
To shut the universe out
Push the voice deep into my brain
'I know I'll see your face again'
my mini projectors play their film
carve it onto the back of my sore eyelids
over and over
I see us in bed bleeding
Arms bleeding
Chests bleeding
Legs bleeding
Hearts bleeding
In white sanitised hospital beds
Unbleeding
They filled me with more and more blood
There was none for you
I wanted to rip out my heart and hand it to you as yours ground to a halt
They sedated me
Counselled me
Dusted me off
And pushed me back to life
I curse your AB negative as I curse my O positive
I curse my video recorder eyes
Which leaked for hours as they lowered you to peace
Your arms finally capturing Time
For eternity
