Amethyst

How dare you enter without warning into my life.

Now I carry my feelings with a butcher knife.

I was innocent once, but you punctured holes into my soul

only to inject the poison.

You breaking open a rock to find amethyst, which was my heart.

And when they get what they want they will never want it again.

I dare you to take everything. Go on take everything from me.

My ribs are wire bending along with your breath.

I'm on the ground again, and I'm raged with hate.

How dare you enter without invitation into my mind.

Now I carry my goodbyes with a butcher knife.
