We Are Now Pure
Chloë Charlton
we didn’t think about how much it hurt us
only that it felt good in the moment
we were lost in it,
clawing desperately at our
crumbling Shangri-la
gritty from salty air,
beaten down by what
we thought we knew.
visitations to people we hated but yearned for
fueling self-hatred and
resentment towards each other
we had nowhere to go
so we sat on the beach and waited for the
waves to lick our toes clean.
