Cotton Ball Fingertips

wish I could rely on you to save me
          AllOfYou
My child screams sing make me feel better,

                                                        -please?

Like I could confuse cotton ball fingertips for clouds
Like I can confuse hands for substance
A regal fuck

Some nameless, handless boy I can compare to clouds

Clouds look so soft
They can save me make me feel better
Maybe you were soft

Maybe you are

You have no business saving me

Stop reading.

You took me by the drunken eyes

And like any paranoid loon I need Constance and clouds to stick my head into
But pinky promises are not legally binding
Though more so than molly bumped cheeks and shaky hands alluding to being saved
