Cyanide
You made me feel so much We were just out of touch You helped me to feel Reminded me that life is real The butterflies The warm words The late nights The exchanged words But you murdered the butterflies Drowned them in cyanide Kept them alive with a kindred fire Only to burn them up in their own desire

Love//Pain
And the boys see your tears as nectar. Flocking, not seeing the cyanide flowing from your eyes, wanting to be the savior. They’ll never be the anecdote, but, after all, a savior isn’t needed, just wanted.

Don’t Save Me, Trust Me
My heart pounds Run out of nouns Headache accompanied by heartache Dizzy Told me to drink the water fizzy Can hardly breathe slipping away me My lunch comes up HUP HUP HUP My body jerks And herks Then my heart slows to a dead mans pace I spray the mace To keep them at bay I don't want to die I can't feel my blood in my veins Faint The blood is taint I black out All around me they pout Finally my heart siezes My life ends in pieces

Cyanide Poisening
Paying the Price? It's never for the nice. So I'll roll the dice Cut and Cut The drops they drip The pain barely a nip I'm not suicidal Nor homicidal But I'm angry and sad And full of madness And of course Badness Delight in my own pain Not for gain But to punish Time for the finish

Background
Your eyes are like hazel,  your words are like cyanide Those chocolate oceans drowning me You build me up and draw me in, traps baited with sugar Then all the same tear me to shambles with your poison

Eyes of hazel and words of cyanide
Apple seeds, Apple seeds, I want to put them in your mouth. Pop them past those parted lips, instead of put them in the ground. Pretty, dark red beads, nestled in their hollows, I'll feed them to you everyday, through all your highs and lows. Despite the fate I've wished on you, you're still feeling fine, so stick out your little tongue, my dear, because it's time to dine.

Apple Seeds
Re-oxygenate my body Push air throughout my lungs Poison the rest of my body, let it soak in my vessels Break my crumbling bones Please, understand my needs There is no cure for cyanide Let my blood boil; Allow me to sink into the floor Let your breath be my last

A Cure to Cyanide
Hydrogen Cyanide I have no idea how it feels to receive what I deserve from you, no memory, only faded dreams. Seething over what I was denied, I became ill from your heavy, searing dose of hydrogen cyanide, And life lost its meaning because I never learned to pour this love I carry inside all over myself.

They tell me it’s the lesser of two evils But I’m not sure that’s a fact Sometimes I think it’s best to leave you to your demons They’ve got you this far in tact Either way I can’t stop the progression This deadly routine’s for your own protection There are no winners here, there’s far too much at stake Do I stand by and let them feed you to the rattlesnake? When I know it’s eating you up inside Like a private supply of cyanide Going, going, gone I see you today but who knows where you’ll be tomorrow Going, going, gone Slipping through my fingers to a place that I can’t follow Going, going, gone Your own private cyanide’s a bitter pill to swallow Going, going, gone I know there’ll be times that you will disagree But just between you and me When they tell us over again that two’s company I feel like we are three But they don’t matter, all my objections This deadly routine‘s become your obsession There are no winners here, there’s far too much at stake Do I stand by and let them feed you to the rattlesnake? And I know it's killing you from inside Like a private supply of cyanide Going, going, gone I see you today but who knows where you’ll be tomorrow Going, going, gone Slipping through my fingers to a place that I can’t follow Going, going, gone Your own private cyanide’s a bitter pill to swallow Going, going, gone Every day I see you drift further away And there’s only so much I can pray I feel like I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place Soon you’ll disappear without a trace Going, going, gone Copyright © 2016-2017 KF

dare i wonder what you think of me for i do not know what i think of myself. maybe there's a difference between how you see yourself and how you let others see you.      am i a plague or a remedy      am i stone cold or burning flames      am i chilled to the bone or am i a home sometimes home can be a person, but i am no home. my hands are cold, they will burn you with frost. i am kind but i am afraid. my chest hurts with the thought of you. not because i wish to have you but because                             i don't. maybe i do, but i am an ocean and you are lost in me. i can see the moon.      do i flee from what i have only to retreat to what i am? i ask of you, are you something new or the                              thing that i can't find. i have a treasure that i wish to keep and                               not soil. you are a treasure of your own. yet i am not worthy. i can have obsidian or i can have gold. Man has always been greedy but i am                       Humble.      am i kind? am i kind to take a cherry with      cyanide pit? you believe me a diamond, but i am only coal. you, my dear, have a heart made of gold.

obsidian & gold
I'm so tired of fighting.... When is screaming going to heal? When will the cold keep us warm? Using words like needles though your heart is plush with love; why do you push and then ask me to pull? This love is ripe. This love is sweet - just like the fruits of our latest nights - and yet we are so sour. You can throw quarrels and daggers laced with spite and cyanide, but then what can be done when your fruits shrivel and die? When your mind clear, as too is your path, and I'm always there waiting on the other side. I'm so tired of fighting, but I'd only sleep with you. So keep this room sacred, and let the only noise heard be the sounds that lips make when they dance with each other.

Fighting
drifting along a sea of broken glass and ashes falling from the sky liquid cyanide stardust on the tongue of naive existence swallowing it like the sun yellow snow of a third winter. cut feet and the orbit of undiluted moonlight forming crystallized blood drops a catalyst for the downfall but the downfall of what? the worst part of the end is not knowing what exactly is ending.

how it ends
Blades of smoke pass through my hair, Cutting; oxidising; as the smoke is slowly rising through the tower of my power as I vainly gasp for air. Cyanide, it seems, can comfort me a while, as I'm breathing; screaming and repeating smoky words into the floor's mute bathroom tile. But my power is all gone; all wrong. Oxidise: Cyanide. Once more into my lungs.

Smoke and Cyanide
Hush little baby, don't you cry, Mama's gonna feed you some cyanide, If that cyanide don't **** you, Mama's gonna drown you in the tub, If you don't go glub glub in the tub, Mama's gonna stab you a thousand times, Hush little baby, rest your head, In a few seconds you'll be dead, La la la la la la la la la, La la la la la la la la la.

Eureka My thanks to the man who tasted cyanide and voiced his last Eureka. “Almonds” To the man who saw dragons to be slayed with pen and sword in windmills. To the Danish Prince who said “What a piece of work is man.” Well, man’s a piece of work alright. Did you ever think about how men wear their ovaries on the outside? Or how you can always win arguments with yourself in the shower? My boyfriend traces the edge of my chewed nails as he asks me what I am thinking about. I’m thinking about the consistency of jellyfish and how it compares to human brains and the taste of nectarines, overripened drawing fruitflies to picnic tables. Maybe I see colors differently and will never know that my blues are only a midnight shadow of what they could be and if I’ve never truly seen the color red. And how after nineteen years I still can’t tell if I’m a good person or just faking really well. And if that Chinese Emperor who strapped rockets to his thrown to find dragons ever found any. Did the chicken getting crushed while crossing the road get him to the other side. If I died young, could I motivate people to be nicer to each other? When did my grandmother die and when can I ask my mother without her crying? There was a little girls skeleton found next to her donkey in the ancient ruins of an earthquake. There were several different species of human alive at the same time and my favorite color isn’t really blue And I’m really glad I couldn’t **** myself when I was 13 because I tasted my first plum last week. AND FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WHAT AM I DOING WITH MY LIFE. My happy moments will always outweigh the bad And are my ***** uneven because when I look down— What are you thinking about? Almonds. They taste like cyanide.

Down, down the rabbit hole, Into a world marred with blandness. It's a silly little place, Quite very queer, All colored grey and flavored with sadness. The tears trickle down and turn into streams, Subtly washing away my dreams. Always the martyr, I chose this fate. Ashes to ashes, we all fall down. Some choose with a bullet and a frown. The petals are soft The petals are nice Secretly laced with cyanide. Tricksy little place, Quite very queer, Down, Down the rabbit hole, Into the world filled with blackness.
