waking_up_with_someone_else's_heart
raze foreign oxygen
carried on the blood
no taste of discontent
no soft adagio
oh sweet protective sac
what are you holding onto now?

...
leif I wake knowing that I am a keeper of another heart.

Yet another.

The pressure of keeping this one intact compresses my lungs like a gregarious uncle bear-hugging my sides to near snapping. The breath escapes me as shallowly as it enters me--hoarse whispers of oxygen failing to reach my blood lines.

I wake knowing that I shouldn't ever leave this one behind. I wake knowing that there is still a chance I might.
