with each short beat constraints bring pain
like tortured boards
sliced, lost remains
The stark confines
these tethered chains
They weigh me down
They haunt my brain
let yourself out.
Kelly May 2021
Your own head lead to personified
ambitions blocked by tainted lines
incriminating
undefined
injustice catered to your blind side

you never saw it coming.

you never saw it through.

How could she see you better than the way you thought you knew?
thank you.

"She's lost control"
She said it first
the words you'd buried deep

You had your path steady in hand
before this swift defeat
i want to know you

what happens when you fall in love with somebody

                                          in a dream?
i wonder if you'll ever dream of me.
Kelly May 2021
I am a villain in somebody’s story
Multiple perhaps
more than likely

And that is excruciating.

I wish I could’ve done right by every single one of them

    So every indention of me left brings only warmth
I’m so sorry for the times I didn’t acknowledge my faults

dull, white lights
and softer smiles
a gentle touch
in hindsight files

replay and replay
in flickering lights
I can't reach out
but I know you fight

the same desires.

tension present and always grows
face to face
where nobody knows

but me and you.
exciting.

words
pixelated and white
drawing from a blindness of absolution
in my hands

if what you said rings true,
I never grew
and Foresight implied intrinsic lies
I could never rectify

the monsters I pushed and pulled from her
grew loud in my brain
a steady purr
as I sunk
and sink
into the person I never wanted to be.
how can i make somebody feel the way I never wanted to feel again
