Between

One night, in between cups of misery 

I held my drunken self in my arms 

Reveling in the beautiful misery of it all 

One night, in between madnesses

I wrote long letters addressed to myself 

Holding addresses hostage to my postcards 

One night, in between judgements 

I passed guilty sentences on myself

Branding debaucheries onto my skin 

One night, in between infidelities 

I found Ifrit sleeping in my bed 

Hiding futures stolen from stars 

One night, in between dissolving dreams 

I felt the night passing through my wings

Weaving musky death between my fingers
