may riff

3 months ago,
you're on me,
you call me out,
when paper walls fail
change it up
prevent the wash away
uneventfully delay
the water ball theory
where cancer presides
and ruins lives
where husbands confide
blatant lies
stained glass covers the tracks
you leave as seconds pass
sleep right when may comes
goodnight until the broken scream
opens your eyes, no morning
just 3 am on a may
only 5 months for you
the words dampen the light,
ice covers your floor
what a world
bite your tongue
the may riff
