Glass Wings

Tiptoe through the sugar moss,

Candy-coated thorns still cross,

Dewdrop diamonds on my skin,

Would you bleed to let me in?

Your fragile wings, they fracture me,

I worship pain so quietly,

If this is spellwork, let it sting,

I’d give my breath for porcelain.

Glass wings, shatter me slowly,

Take my devotion, break me wholly,

Fairy queen with teeth that bite,

Hold me in your velvet night.

Hide and seek with hollow eyes,

Sing me soft, decaying lullabies,

Dollhouse dreams that rot with time,

But you’re still praying you’ll be mine.

If I drown inside your glow,

Promise me you’ll never let me go,

Even if the forest burns,

I’ll die to see your wings return

Glass wings, shatter me slowly,

Fairy god with hunger holy,

Pull me deeper, take my light,

Crown me in your endless night.
