free verse (roman numerals)

l. today the wind blew like ice melts.
slowly, breaking apart.

tomorrow the ice will crack
and i just might fall through

yesterday the wind blew right through me
i felt like i might have broken apart


ll. tomorrow my heater might explode
leaving me with scars even you can't kiss better

yesterday i will smash my heart into pieces
and you will watch with tears in your eyes
because you hoped you could hold it one day

today you will kiss each piece i left on the floor
and carefully piece them back together



lll. yesterday i lied about how i felt
so you could pretend that we are all okay

today i watched you lie to me
so we could pretend it was alright

tomorrow we will make up
because the bed will be
much too empty without
you/me in it and our
hearts will never mend without
your/my presence



lV. tomorrow i will kiss each scar better
because my lips seem to cool the burns

today i wasn't home when our gas
stove exploded in your face

yesterday i realised i will sob
when i wasn't there for you



V. yesterday our dreams were torn to shreds
by someone as savage as i used to be

tomorrow the odds couldn't possibly make a difference
as our love consumed us like the flames and the moth
but with less third degree burns

today we made up like fire
our sheets crinkled and crackled like popcorn
and love refused to go out
