kaleidoscope

a promise, like a cherished kite caught way on a vicious wind. tethered with a string, breaking from your blameful hands. through our window pane cracked into pattern light refracts in ways that I've never seen a promise in your gritted teeth, clashed against your crooked smile. you were criminal, hiding by my sleepless side. through our window pane cracked into pattern light refracts in ways that I've never seen a promise in my empty chest never left these barren bones.
