Just a Disappointment

Just a disappointment

 

I don't hate,

It’s just wasteful-

Breathing in

and never breathing out.

 

The space is empty

with crammed tug-of-wars

dragging my heart,

Heart dragging months.

 

I don't think

any less or worse-

Character undefined. Always repetitive.

Bored of the ****

pulling over old paintings;

Same as yesterday,same as before.

 

I don't cry

for actions cowardly

shunted inwards;

Explosion due released.

The shedding tears,

carving maps upon lips,

design attention

inward reaps deliverance.

 

I don't hurt

for lacking sensitivity-

desire for one embellished

with lapping present conviction.

The same minuscule point,

returned again and again-

Intentions to change;

Stairwell to nowhere.
