mesmerized by the collected way you talk to me how your lips no longer speak into me across paled skin i slowly lower my lids i leave this ?time? i travel back ***** wooden floors gravel drives *** smoke empty bottles love made flesh bruised lips bleeding i travel BACK i see your eyes the metallic glare behind them in my arms you were soft is that why in the night i couldn't hold you? composure is everything !be vulnerable for me! you're hard you've been stamped on by the feet of god crushed into powder bone dust compacts you wear it inside you you wont let me feel it wont let me see i tried to consume wanted to drink you up eat your beautiful flesh i didn't heed the warnings i ripped through you hungrily you have a ******* a pit like a peach shards of my teeth lodge there you cast me aside collect the molars as a keepsake had i known i would have swallowed you whole and carried the blackness in me carried your love always eternally unceasingly in me
