“Magenta. That's what I call it when I get that way. All kinds of feelings tumbling all over themselves. Well, you see... you're not quite blue because you're not really sad. And although you're a little bit jealous, you wouldn't say you're green with envy. And every now and then, you realize you're kind of scared, but you'd hardly call yourself yellow. I hate that feeling; I just hate it. And I hate the color magenta. That's why I named it that. Magenta.” - Blanche E. Deveroux

Night Sky.

I reach for you with arms far too short to touch the sky.

We once lit up the night like diamonds.

Cutting glass, cutting ourselves—

open, we are.

Wide, unruly.

Young, and unkempt.

Love, I find, is often this way.

It tells you not what is right,

only allows you to feel what is so very wrong.

Storm clouds roll in,

we know not shelter.

No umbrellas, no protection.

Far too often,

and all too willing to bring new life

to this earth.

And yet,

not willing enough to stay

you departed,

my love,

quite as quickly as you so often came.

Three, four times.

It only worked out right when the competition was,

for who could treat each other better.

Hands were linked, not cuffed,

adoration

and love fell through hearts like icicles

from stairwells.

And we are both alone.

Lovers lost in endless twilight,

the third bad thing,

in the set of threes,

is darkest after dawn.

Do you mean what you said

in between the corners of my thighs

in the darkness of the basketball courts

in the subways

in the streets

in the darkness of your mind

and mine.

What, in love, is forever?

Is forever?

Is goodbye?

I once slit my wrists with you in mind.

If I detached my hand,

would it be long enough to reach you?

But the blood

consumes me like endless bounds.

I am

sky high and infinite,

and I love you.

I am bleeding,

and leaving.

As you did.

Tell me that you’ve never,

ever missed me,

daring, I am alone.

Even drugs don’t fill me now and your touch,

is mastermind.

Find me a way back home,

lover.

Find me away to reach for you,

my dear,

night sky.
