A poem about love, and destruction.
Your love for my smile
was unbearably attractive. Every-
thing about our love is attractive
to me. I smile
one last time, to catch the edge of brilliance
in your eyes, that alarming blow.
I drowned.

You whispered as my body filled,
“Smoke this cigarette as I drown
in our attraction too.”
You drowned too.

Our bodies lay along the river, paralleled
in every aspect, we were
one.

I grabbed your hand and shouted quickly,
“This flash of effulgence,
the one of the combination of
our bodies,
will kill you all.”

For a moment there, the world
was dead.
