Try and try to
read between the lines
only to find
emptiness.

i've smoked myself
to a visible storm of swaying
projection
underneath my eyelids
swim a beautiful collection of purple and blue
swelling under the pressure
of no longer having you
I thought i'd thrown away all of my masks
but this one I keep
so no one really knows how every time I hear your name
my muscles twitch and when you always
leave me unnoticed
knives twist in my back
you go through love like razors
the pain is no more fun
when i've gotten too dull
what is a life without you
without you
without you
