I hugged a grenade

by @shikaluki

all was calm the air was still, undisturbed but there came your voice disrupting the peace your scent, detonating a mysterious magnetism drew me closer and closer to you yet pushed you farther and farther from me I further fall, deep like my pain, buried inside this broken soul to hide the woes and heartache while your fuse gets shorter as time burns impatience seizes your mind I tried to preserve it, and make it last but the bomb has set off and there I lay on the shattered floor trying to revive cold corpses knowing they're dead but still, hopelessly looking for that one person who I can call "home"
