the safety net no one asked for
clasping at the sides
tightening the jaws of betrayal
ever so quietly strengthening itself
each bite of your innocence
enhances the clutch
dismembering your freedom
stacking loyalty on top of love
laughing internally
laughing at YOU
the cloned feeling of fear
waits for the green light
meticulously planning the next attack
wait til it’s dark
wait til you’re in the darkest of places
and in that moment,
mortality is imminent
