Your love seeps through me as though it is ink
staining my bones.
I might regret this in the future,
like an anorexic Barbie who just inhaled an apple,
but the non-washable stain
of your endearment
will always lay within my breath.
You stabbed me with a feather,
that hurts more than a billion wounds,
and I will try to send the stars my soul,
but instead I will most likely end up sending you.

The author's comments:
I hope no one pictures the exact same image while reading this poem. I was trying to really think outside of the box on this one, and play with words. I wanted to really let a variety of ideas come to the readers during this.
