Hearts beat Breath quickens The light it blinds, the dark, it thickens. The pounding in the chest and skull. Explosions threatening in mind, to tongue. Pain to release pain, Loss is the only thing we gain. Say- im you're only one. Pay- what I do when you depart again- One final time. Not with Benjamin's, penny's And dimes. I payed for my crimes- deep Crimson blood and my fragile, darkened soul. Gone they are from my body now, empty as it is. It's a wonder how my heart still beats through my chest when you approach with your candor in tow. It's a wonder how my breath quickens when you kiss me so. But the insistent pounding in my skull and chest shall continue; This allergic reaction to feelings I should not be experiencing, due to my soulless-ness. My unfixable mess, but you have elicited this.
