Face to face with the same beast,
For years upon years it never ceased,
My flesh too tender not to feast,
Thought by now it'd decrease.

Finding peace of mind,
My tactics becoming refined,
Even when I'm in a bind,
It's a strategy I've designed.

Carnage can never persist,
If I'm to continue to exist,
The faded lines upon my wrist,
The beast and I must coexist.

Finding peace of mind,
My tactics becoming refined,
Even when I'm in a bind,
It's a strategy I've designed.

This is the beast's line,
As I have decided to define,
Every tooth mark on my spine,
Until I realize it's okay, I'm fine.

Just slide the blade already
You're already killing me
Is it that you enjoy visual agony,
Carving up your trophy,
Watching the tragedy?
Maybe the key word in your kink is "slowly"
Like you don't want to catch up with destiny
But can't pull yourself away from the debauchery

The clock ticks,
eyes wide,
the night is heavy,
wrapped in silence,
dreams just out of reach.

I lie awake,
lost in shadows,
waiting for dawn
to break the stillness.

i lay my body dough out                              
        a soft slab of relief                                       
                           cooled on the fire escape
                          loaning my spore to the night

The stars giggle
Drunk on the dust
In the Milky Way
They tip over
Turning a fall into a dip
When I squint
I see you just like this
Dancing at the end of a stick

I would like to say
I wake up in the morning
Refreshed and ready
But I just squint through the light
Pouring through my window
Trying harder and harder to see you
As you disappear
