digging through the ashes of who I once was
There are no More parts of me To give. You have taken Everything And locked it Away where I can’t find it. I have searched For myself for So long I don’t remember who I used to be. But that person was Much more whole than You’ve left me. I am a skeleton of who I once was. So cold and lonely.

Skeleton
oh the whispers you hear Rumors cling to her As if she were born of fantasy If you didn’t look close enough You’d believe them Her every feature memorized From a distance If stares could melt She’d long be a puddle Devouring eyes implore a taste The touch becomes a habit Filthy minds puppeteer filthy hands A mixture of greed and obsession You reach for her unvoiced desires Assumed, as always Untrue, as always Affection dissolves before it appears You demand an answer The one you want to hear Different from the one she gives Yet excuses don’t work if the consent was never there in the first place The stories she does not share Haunt memories and thoughts, Begging to be remembered As she begs to forget Love isn’t pretty Love was never pretty oh the whispers she hears
