gone
Rebecca Kirtlink Oct 2013
Soothe me.
Take me in.
Breathe your ethereal life into me.
What I would give to feel what you feel.
To understand you...
learn your quirks.
Who are you underneath?
Underneath the confidence you're forging.
Let your love loom over me.
Shake my body.
Shake my soul.
Make me feel my pulse in my fingers.
Temples.
Feel me everywhere.
It's dark again.

you hollow me out while radiating throughout me, red.
you excavate and pave over my cracks.
I am a disease.
I take steps.
recede.
and wither.

I guess you could call her a stranger,
she's afraid to get too close.
Attitude buried deep in her skin
her pain, heartache
[She fakes a smile]

They want to understand,
what goes on inside her head.
Her laugh, monotonous,
her skin could break.
[and she's beautiful.]

I want him to see the pain he caused,
the hurt inside her eyes.
The love she felt,
[undeniable]
For him?
[unworthy.]

You forget the pain and live in the moment,
never sharing how you truly feel.
Do you look for separation
or does it find you?
[Are you ashamed?]

With no desire to be amicable,
you believe you have true friends.
Tossing and turning thought the day.
Yearning to remain alive.
[Her heart still beats.]

Opinionated irony,
I see it in her eyes.
Life will turn out the way you hope
when you find your only someone.
[True love.]

Confusion spreads like a spider bite
and strokes then through her words.
A shocking splendor of melancholy lyric.
[Shot through fangs.]
Amazed me.
[Realization.]
