Paper Ceilings.
Ceiling tiles are falling like renegade lawnmower blades with light bulb shrapnel edges, whirling around my head and grazing the pretty little veins that open into bloody smiles at my throat.
Tiny bits of glass glance across my fondant skin, leaving bee sting pinpricks with minuscule roses blooming into them just to fill the would-be scars; red icing to hide raked over cake crumbs.
When all the tiles crumble, the frame looms dark and empty; a waffle iron cookie cutter suspended by razor wire cables that sway in time to the earthquake tremors under three stories of empty space.
Wasn’t this my sanctuary? Before origami love notes fluttered down like papercut cranes to slice my fingerprints into jigsaw puzzle pieces without matches when I tried to read them; before the props collapsed into themselves.
All the paper cranes are catching fire, writhing in the growing tongue of red-purple flame that laps at my ankles incessantly, spitting the ashes into the air to land on my cheeks like incinerated butterfly wings in a river of tears.
Please don’t let me scream.
I LOVE YOU 10:19 AM
