Slightly Bent

My cracked smile

Tears pour out of my eyes

Body bare and cold

Blood dripping from my fingertips

My dangling knife falls to the floor

Toes curled upon the pavement

Head slightly bent to the left

Memories whisper across the horizon

The sunset beams along the shadow of what I once was

Slumbers Of Our Rapid Oxidation

Lying next to your ghost,

Your body is here but your heart is somewhere else,

I can feel you ambling away from me,

Quietly waiting for you to fade away,

I run my hand along the sheets that you imprinted,

I can feel you there,

Struggling to hold in my speculations,

Breathing to replace the tears that role down my chin,

Bellowing screams echo in my head,

Jolts of her breathe down my neck,

Encouraging rages of deep anguish seek to be let out,

Unknowing of a future so raw and crisp,

Paling moments that linger on my tongue,

Cries of a forbidden lie that will never be expressed,

Exchanging of harsh words justify the discretions that have been made,

Intoxication band aides the pain for a beatific moment that drifts as our shadows die,

Flames that burst "us" into a rapid oxidation,

Extinction is the story that has been written for you and I,  

My eyes start to close and vanish into a dream that I cannot escape from,

Laying with your ghost, the pillow that you left behind.
