you are cigarette sticks just lit, you are a fresh wound on an old stitch. a disorder spun out of control, watching as madness takes hold - clutch breaks - what happens next - your life begins to unfold. creases form like scars that never quite leave, mistakes we break, we drown and we bleed. i can't live without them is the greatest lie: love kills you from the inside out, toxic chemicals rampage fire through your veins: hooked, hooked, hooked lined and sunk; funny how we continue to live with it only because we die with it.
