JUNE
Swimming With Serpents & Sirens
I swam with a siren and ended up consumed by a serpent
Was I naive or were they just usurpant
Drunk on greed and oblivious to the pain
You sink your teeth in, when I wince I become the bane
Did it consume you, did you like it; to taste my blood
I loved you so much I didn't even complain when I saw in the distance the swelling of the flood
Engulfed in the ocean, embellishing your hearts with my shaky hands
My clumsy naivety was never met with kindness, only reprimands
Do you forget how many I'm sorry's you poured into me like they were meant to replace all you depleted
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind take it all, I no longer desire to be accreted
You speak so unkindly for someone who claims to once have been so in love
The facts existed historically, documented hereinabove
The amount of times I played the fool to avoid arguments over passive comments you thought were quips
The amount of times I avoided a fight by playing prey and staring at your blood soaked lips
The lies you told, the promises you never kept
Stuck in wells of my body still being wept
Call me a villian I call you the storm
You destroyed every part of me until I had no choice but to take a new form
The abuse suffered happened on all ends
But as my tank ran out, I pretended to love the feel of the bends
When consciousness fades I can still hear her siren tune
Who knew this year hurricane and tsunami season both fell in June
