Porcelain / Sunrise

  you with the marble eyes
  fragile with porcelain bones
  you look at the stars and you wonder why
  are you as hungry as i?
  (yesterday’s news but still new to me)
 
  i can’t see me
  or someone i used to be
  i can’t see you now
  or someone who used to be you
  are you someone new?
  are you someone i used to know?
  have you been there before?
  have you seen me before?
 
  when was the last time you cried
  i think it was centuries ago
  a stake through the heart
  and sunrise will keep you away
