Ache

Ache
Written by Wren Alman
Heat in the pit of me
Broad wounds across narrow shoulders
Fire up my spine
Air in my ears
Failing body
Trembling hands
Cane that says
‘none of your business’
Eyes that say
Please don’t ask
I can’ t take it
Heart that says
I loved a girl, I loved a girl, I love a girl
