not to scratch at

the incessant itch

between your ribs

this ache

you wait

heart on a plate

a fucking artichoke

wear it on your sleeve

long enough to believe

theres someone out there

that is your reflection

double edged sword

under the inflection

of their voice

for hours and days

time passes slowly like

atoms through matter

like the air you cough up

blood ripped smoke

we were lied to

happy endings are a joke

culture brainwashed

hypnotized you’re alive

i awake from the same dream

every night

is it worth the fight

still he hides in shadows

the longer i linger in silence

the more i crave a violence

to rip the skin in half

make the body bone and blood

stain my fingertips with his

teeth ripping through me

it’s an understatement

this obsession

further magnified by

a repetition

two days is nothing

but it was once everything
