Words
 Oct 2015 Kill me slowly
Raven
I held your words because they meant something.
I never smelt the scent of lies that withered through them.
Your heart.
it was kind, it was simple
Your words.
they were just words
Your care
it loved me for a moment
i see your hand prints on my skin
in nightly dreams
when there was a time
i was filled with the happiness you created before me
but you are just a body that doesn't fit with mine
and the words that spill from your mouth
they were just your words

A lovely time it was
feet in the water
hands lifting our backs
the wind blew
the noise was vacant
and i still believe
we are two differences
slowly
binding together
again

Seeing happy people
how can I sit here
in a black hole
while the rest of the world is
smiling
I'm in
my own
dimension
Rolling around
aimlessly through
galaxy's
Of star dust
"Most people are too afraid to feel like this, and for that I actually find you incredibly brave"

We're trading hurt for hurt
punch for punch
we're taking turns seeing
how much more the other can take
testing, trying, tricking, lying
we're ruining each other
ripping into the other's skin
pulling apart, shattering
scratching, scarring
destroying body and soul
so neither of us can ever be
whole again

you haven't seen me naked

the plant paints naked women
in your eyelids
to lure you into
their mouth.

freedom is a hallucination.

what involves you
is decoy.

the enemy is benign.

passion is an object
which fills you,

making you
a carrier of
waste.

in a triumph there are chains

          connecting the mad-men
  from           cell       to        cell

  where the plants grow in the dank
  humid
  rot.

keeping men company.

keeping madness close.

keeping to themselves.

the unkindness of ravens
was the ****** of crows.
