One and the Same
Her recent attempt at resolve brought contempt upon one mass of carbon
standing in dark hallways with angered eyes and a foul mouth
performing her beautiful, much rehearsed theatrical presentation
firing vitriole into the heavens
still struggling under the weight of her spurned hatred
only civil option is ingesting feeling like polluted chemical sandwiches, just waiting to boil in acid
hoping it will digest once more and pass, rather than stagnate, soil, and simmer
within
still the pain forms nails shooting through my epidermal layers
each, sharp word forming a single, elongated and distempered construction accessory
all for the destitution of some perverted notion of loyalty
while you’re just an accessory to assault on my cardiac rhythm
once again you coagulate my only pleasure
and rise in my chest a bellowing beast that thirsts for blood, retribution
or just one chance
to escape your vile mouth
