Nightblooming Trilogy - Mia Doi Todd

Nightblooming jasmine

Nightblooming jasmine

Seeps through the crack in your window glass

Nightblooming jasmine

Nightblooming jasmine

Open your door, step out onto the porch

Nightblooming jasmine

Nightblooming jasmine

I’ll let you in, if you promise me one thing

I’ll let you in, if you’ll be here in the morning

Nightblooming jasmine

Nightblooming jasmine

Vanishes with the sunrise

You never notice until you open your eyes

Nightblooming jasmine

Nightblooming jasmine

The woman who drank poison to keep her body frail

The woman who drank poison to keep her skin very pale

She knew the night so much more intimatly than I
