harvest lyrics
by June Henry
It’s harder to think you were trying your best
The anger has settled now, I’ve got no guts left
Waking up in a cold tub, heart missing
Only to find you with it at your sewing machine
Cut yours in two, blanket stitch me to you
Now we’re a monster of your making
We waited for lightning to strike
The storm never arrived
There is no faking the light behind your eyes
I was rotting before
I found you eating my decay
Morel mushrooms behind the juvie
I remember you dancing that day
And you called me your dandelion
‘Cause I was yellow in the green
Now I see I was dying in front of you
And all you could do was make wishes with me
