devotbees

we swim, swarm, twist, struggle through your veins
to keep the blood flowing
while you die in chains
and we hold you tight
and you scream for flight
but we know better
and write you a letter
it disarms you
and blows you away
and so you stay
and sip at your tea
a simple warmth, a word, a smile
and poison leaves you for a while
and you just read
uncover
see
that always love will bloom for thee
and when dawn´s glow pales your fears
remember the heart-worn that kissed you goodnight
and leave them some honey for their tears
