I WANT TO EXTRACT

I want to extract

my heart

(encased in a cliché)

and beat

for beat

time it to your

executions.

I want to extract my mind

(superbly hidden and dancing with iniquity)

and join

it to

your eyes darkest

dreaming.

I want to extract my soul

and leave me empty

(do you see,

beautiful void)

and let your smile

once more

teach it

birth. death. a secret.
