#corroded
I retain, fixed unworldly cashed-in a point until corroded by metological formula and practical social delinquency Weather me down til I am camera projector and pinhole Pure and abyss-less lights vehicle apperatus                          - forget me not

Asylums Knot
It seems that heads are rolling And ideas are left to perch atop These humanoid bodies. Unnatural. When did humanity lose itself and begin To create the poison we consume? The rotten images of walking *** And fumes of chemical death? These corrosive lifestyles spread like Wildfire and teenage legs. Soon, there will be nothing But the empty heads that Obsess over the next **** The next dose of whatever form of ****** is "The New Hot Topic." And the rest of us will be left Picking up the pieces.

Rolling Downhill
Black hole, please, absorb this! This horrible image, This regrettable instance In which I had lost myself to Blindness. Lover, Force me to look at you And nit into the past that is A marble statue with claws and teeth That protrude like swords. Tell me I can let go Of the rotted flower petals Covered in mold and betrayal, They said they would stay Beautiful! Tell me I can rinse the slime Of false hope from my body And my intimacies so that I may be pure for you. Quicksand, drop this putrid locket Into your depths and clog the clasp So that no one will ever see the inside. Obey Me! Take my sacrifice, my past and Everything Corroded! Tell me That I am able to forget And be forgotten!

Forgotten
I can taste the licks of flame in my mind, Just barely; I cry. The sour flavour corrodes My tongue, telling me I can't continue To suffer the wrath. The scent kills me, And I continue to defy what is constantly Whispered in my fragile ears. The sound of the bitter cackling of demons Burns the wings of butterflies that inhabited My entire body. The smoke from the charred, Powder-white wings of moths, Parasites, kiss the scares and open them again. The desire to feel the pain consumes the spindly legs Of butterflies trying to escape, nearly dead By fire caused by my own hands. My fingers shake, I am cold. But my messages are not clear anymore. I am no butterfly on fire. They are all dead.
