Once or so will do

The word cuts short

But the feelings lie true

Like a shifting twig against the skin

You’ll remember

With a fresh, visual sense of thin

Thin doesn’t quite fit

Unless you scream yourself in

Or score the hollow pit

But I meant to say goodbye

Even though I seethe

An actual bye

The rage is uncanny

I fall apart from truth

I can’t rely inside it’s insanity
