I've slumbered
through the innocence
of my youth
and the resulting indulgence
left me dry
Since then
I've drowned in non-sense
and bathed
in pool after pool
of white lie;
allowed your eyes
to send bone-chilling waves
down my spine,
with the reckless risk
they imply
and though unwanted
thoughts
deaden my gaze with doubt,
to the grasp of your
abuse
I'll comply

with the reckless risk

and though unwanted

deaden my gaze with doubt,
to the grasp of your

I'll comply
First work in a while, just went through a huge writers block, so comments would be greatly appreciated.
