The World Is a Beautiful Place & I Am No Longer Afraid to Die

Lioness
When I was with you we were an estuary/ i don't know if i come from the river or the sea/ all i know is you are both my opposite and my reflection/ and where we meet, all salt and mouth and convergence. we were the meeting point of a mountain and a valley/ from a distance it is clear that we are inverted forms of one another/should our mountain crumble it would fill the valley to our brim/ creating flatland where there was once chaos/ but until that beautiful collapse we wonder where you begin and i end. we were two bodies/ running out of room in this world/ we carved space in ourselves for the other to borrow. for the other to burrow/ i wake up sometimes with ghost traces of your lips on my bone/ and my arms holding your phantom frame as you drift away. we were roots and soil/the splendor of a tide pool/ we were giants. but for now we can't swallow the things that separate us. lioness please grab me again by the scruff of my neck/ and lick the wounds i've made trying to taste my own blood.
