Razor - by Gina


Waiting for you
lays down dryer lint felt
inside my heart
layer
by
layer
cushioning
muffling my heart beat
slowing my heart rate

and blue with cold
I get out the blade
to scrape clean.

The old edges look dull
till you put them
to skin.

    Thanks, Jess! I love winter beach - it always evokes a mess of emotions and turmoil for me.
