I don’t know what any of this is for I’m growing weary, locked inside this door, of never ending staircases and cobwebbed walls cold cement floors littered with blood and voodoo dolls outlines shadow your existence and monsters take your place and I find myself hiding in the darkness and scratching at my face to mutilate these smiles, that feel much more like frowns and bleed the agony out of me so you won’t come back around. I sense the haunting from our carnage smothering my breath and I choke on stale air because you stole my lungs and left. leaving me hollow, and alone within my mind remembering lost love and simpler times I’m held here as your prisoner locked inside your door and I’ll never know or understand what any of this was for.

Vacant Mansion
Diluted promises- watered down with doubt and wandering flesh Jagged kisses pierce your throat and I have no bandage to place upon you I was the bandage. And now I must peel away Quick, as not to inflict continued pain. But remember- pain is human Or is it soul? Soul is absent Feathered and dusty Everywhere and nowhere. Each weaving must unweave And unwoven takes another form But separate. Two lines uncrossed. Miles away from you and me I whisper and it sounds too loud My ears bleed for your departure My heart aches for the end My eyes are blind and I fumble around Trying to capture the fraying leftovers That have gone cold in our hands, But I’ve lost my appetite for you And I spit up your words I’m sick on your lies And I’d rather die hungry Then full of your **** And empty from your love.

The Unweaving
my head hangs low my eyelids flutter these shaking knees are collapsing quickly and there is no ground to catch my escape my mind lays blank and no tears are left but my heart is racing like when we met yet this time, there’s a valley in the center of you I quaked your land re-shaping what you were and now you’re divided jaggedly with no hope of reeling your two parts back together. my vanity has broken you apart my pride pulled me away and just like you, I’m left in half but my good has gone to grey. needles and pins infest my feet, my prickling hairs stand tall, even now, in all this mess I have your back against the wall. Sorry can’t be a real word when I don’t even know what it means but I’m sorry that you fell in love and so sorry she was me.

Deep Valleys
You're a murderer you know, and you've gotten away with it. No witnesses to testify against you, No alibi needed to strengthen your case. No evidence strong enough to unmask you. Just an unidentified victim, with no open wounds or visible markings to give away its' subject- For all the bloodshed is within. CHOKED! RIPPED! ***** STABBED! BEAT! STRIPPED! It is all secretly covered, unexposed. A beautiful mirage- Painted lips and crystal eyes, velvet skin, draped, in golden, satin hair. A flawed mirage- With bleeding lips, and crying eyes. Diseased skin, smothered in, dull, lifeless hair. Yet still, the inside reveals nothing. A murderer you remain, but what a lovely victim I make.

TRIAL
Tangled, Knotted, Melted- I try to make sense out of the wreckage from your tears. So long ago, so scattered and strewn, our bullets still embedded in the soles of our feet- Weighing down our wings and windows. You looked like a child, Scared and alone- and it all came to me, but i don't know what to do. I wanted to hold you and hit you. Break you, and make you. Shake you, and still you. Erase you. Erase it all. Undo the pain Take away the tears, forget the cries. But i'm the child. And I wanted you to hold me.     make me. I wanted you to still me. But you just cried, and I'm all alone. Sitting 2500 miles away, in my home, you'll probably never see.

2500 miles away
Your glass eyes shatter my innocence, As you peer behind their masked acceptance. Turning your back, on my over-exposed, leaking speech. Comparing your hazy, lustful embraces to my inescapable desperate moans. You perk up upon your pedestal, Finding pride within your superior lower number, Shaking your head in shame, as the unnamed masses Flash through your condescending imagination. Well, a pat on the back for you. And how about a high-5 too? After all, i'm just a prettier version, of a back laying **** Spread open to be invaded and wrung dry, Then tossed to the side- after a breathtaking ride, Too vulnerable to hide. And now too ugly for your eyes. I really am sorry, I should have just lied.

****
I awake shaking- Searching for stolen breath. Saturated in a sickening veil of unwanted memory. Your flesh eating eyes burn through my lucid skin, Melting down my fragile youth. YOUR MOUTH! Your serpent-filled, blood draining tongue that like daggers, have penetrated, and sliced my innocent soul, continues to wrap around my weakened limbs, erasing my goodness, and burying, my desperate, homeless love. ***** lays dormant within me. Erupting gallantly, With just the itch of you upon my tiny hand. So many times i have tried to slip out of my skin, to creep away into the night, release you from my shackles. So many stormy nights, i slink inside my blood, and cut my flesh to rid you of my veins. Too many times, i have carved out my face in hopes to go unrecognized by your wicked voice. But you find me. you seep back into my flesh and you leave me empty, you leave me dissected, you leave me alone you are inside of me, but you leave me Alone.
