Snakes
Snakes
They’ll lay with you
Tracing skeletons
Whispering songs
To let them in
You say no
Who could trust a snake?
But the more you lay together
Your heart is not so scared
It cracks open
Slightly
Just enough
For the snake to slip right in
In the moment
Before it flees
Your heart feels whole
Like the crack
Was always meant to be
