nightmare of you

so on those days home in your car
we jerked the steering wheel to the median
joking that we'd end our lives
but we weren't joking all of the time

a flash of dark interest
steers us into a car crash
uniting our remains; a fiery hurray

our hands touch
unnoticed
pressed up against melting glass
and you're calling out my name
as the air escapes

now i want to be buried in your backyard
and when the flowers grow just know you’re still in my heart
