Go ahead
Leave me in the dust
To rot and rust
I am what I am, there is no denying,
I'm "not the one to trust!"
Give me over to the *wolves,

Don't help me lift the weight,
I grow "weaker" daily, while
I lift it on my own, *my soul "I sold."

How you gave it to me then let go.
I don't need others there to help me
To even do good things, I carry on
Alone, this is my battered tiny home,
But it keeps me here alive and well,
Still I scare others, garish scars
I must have been to hell! I got what
I deserved? Of course when you see
The real "me for myself," I am a fool
For "all can tell..."

*Place me over the spikes and let me
Figure it out, what's the matter?
It can't be so hard...!

For you are too scared
and I am too coward.

I think I love you,
And I'm not going to lie,
That absolutely terrifies me.
What do I do?

Beautiful things
Happen in places
That terrify you.
Oskar Erikson Jul 2016
There is a snake.
Its many beautiful scales criss-cross over
my heart. I. I. I.
promised to never tell a soul
and hoped to die.

I'll be swallowed whole.

Boa-constricting inside my head
until the ink coloured poison drip drops till
i'm dead

Lure her
Floor her
Scare her
Stone her
Beat her
**** her
Get down
Stay down
Play around
The sound
Deaf and blind
Can't see truth
Won't hear truth
Illusion blinds her
Words go through
But it won't sink in
So she
Gets down
And stays down
While they
Lure her
Floor her
Scare her
Stone her
Beat her
**** her
And she doesn't even know

A scowling scare crow,
Weather beaten one, bleached clean.
Stoops down as if it's scared.
I’m alone
in the dark
darkness envelops me
I’m screaming
no one answers
no voice calls me
no hand takes me
darkness
scares me
... I succumb
I can't breathe without
A crescendo of panic
Crashing into my lungs
Like a flood of salty, bitter water.
I'm scared
I lost you
It can't be real
I'm scared
you won't fight for me
I'm scared
I won't be live anymore
I'm scared
I won't be able to see your eyes anymore
I'm scared
I won't able to kiss your lips anymore
I'm scared
I won't be able to touch your skin
I'm scared
I'll never feel something like this
I'm scared
I 'll never feel your warmth
hold in your arms
I'm scared
I know
my life without you
will be an eternal fight
to breath
