#corrosive
I’d rather not rhyme perhaps you’ve noticed i mean, it happens sometimes but it's not something on which I’m focused. in my opinion rhyme is corrosive, distracting, unattractive and absolutely the grossest Sure, Shakespeare may have rhymed but are we sure he wasn’t AI? I wasn’t at the globe I wasn’t with him at home. Were his royal plots fake news? Maybe his ladies weren’t all shrews, - did Trinculo actually lick a shoe? I don’t know, but let’s not crown rhyme in all our designs, as desirable all the time. . . A song for this: IDGAF by Dua Lipa [E] Change My Mind by The Motels

I had it yelled at me once, "you don't even know what love is!" At first the accusation put me on the defensive But the examples to me of laugh, love, live Has always been top tier corrosive, a wildly destructive narrative ©2024

~•§•~ I Know what Love Isn't ~•§•~
An alternate universe I created in my mind to see reality in reverse. Where stupid tyranny is just a laughing matter and serious chatter only carefree pink irony. Oh, what would I do without this corrosive intoxicating glue.

I sold the one thing I should not, Some thing I had not. I traded nothing, in exchange for writing my own life's script. I was instantly granted each and every wish; I corrosively imagined I had seen through the mist. When I found out that who I advocated was what's in the details, I stole the one thing I should, What I had sold. Since that meant I'd steal nothing, I got back my soul.

i don't even know who this is about
You stick fingers between my Dried bones, concealing The dark organs Contaminated, Oozing, Nauseating Stench radiates from within But you see beauty where only Decay breathes forth from lungs that exhale particles Of death, but you breath in All I expel, your talons encroach Upon this lump still Beating, Blackness, Haemorrhaging Concealed nectar of death running through what flesh on bones remain. Her talons of nail dig in, I feel if for a moment something Other than death, She lacerates it, "As black secretes forth" My love erodes Flesh upon her fingers As she tastes the nectar Blistering  her throat away We both felt it for a moment, "Love was bled" "Love was tasted" Even in darkness there is "Love" "We paid a heavy price" As the heart dissolved us away. But we were in darkness and love freed us for That moment, now our spirits together Solidified for eternity, A blade fashioned for those who cant take The pain of love, "To bled it upon the blade" For it will feed on that emotion For it was called the "Eclipsed twilight" Where light was momentary, But could still evoke that feeling   "But love is eternal" Its can never be bled out fully Love once tasted in light or darkness Never really fades away.
