Corruption

My lungs were corrupted by the lies that hang around you.

My heart was torn by the hands that touched them (yours).

I smoke to fill my lungs with something other than the remnants of your lies.

And my heart is locked away so others cannot touch it.

You have destroyed my insides without my consent, so now I will continue the destruction but this time it will be by my own terms.
