Bloody fingers dance on the skin,
The bones that have bloomed backwards.
Take me from the shadows of my frame
Out of a constant home that makes me sick
Sinking into the cosmos
I'll echo infinitely
Hidden in this heart
The world will never know me
I will live without this body
I will live within this universe
Today
I walked in the cold
Snow danced around me
In graceful pirouettes
Falling to the ground
And I stood bewitched
Until a snowflake landed in my eye
And I cried winter
My eyes are filled of soil and soon enough flowers will grow out of them. I will be blind but the vines will guide me. They will touch things and whisper in my ear to tell me what they look like. The vines see through touch. They speak by rubbing together. The sound creates their whispers.
My lungs will be home to a tree, but that's okay because it will breathe for me. It will breathe out it`s oxygen for me to use.
My hair will fall out, in its place roots will grow. The roots would be from the plant growing inside my skull. It is a plant like none you`ve ever seen. It is completely unique. It will grow around my brain, it will make it more
A captivating calamity of the mind
It's decadence
MalevolenceDisguised as benevolence
Enslaves you
Enrages you
Entices you
Delights you
Benights you
It's poisonous poise destroys you
It embraces you
And escapes you
You'll pursue it
Ensue it without question
As it continues to elude you
Delude youAnd you've never construed
That there's no end
To the amount you're willing to bend
Til you breakUnmendable
Incomprehensible
Your destruction is indispensable
Or so it seemsForever the forgiver of faults
As indefensible
NonsensicalAs they may have been.
My muscles grow weak
But my heart beats
Faster with the closing distance
Of two fires.
Paralyzed and waiting willingly to accept
A meeting of silk skin,
Even just the slightest bit.
I embrace what I receive
Clutching it close to me
Before it slips from my grasp
And flies away with the wind
Just out of reach of my outstretched hands
Teasing me with comfort and familiarity.
I just can't say it.
My favorite place
Exists in my head
Where the music is playing
And the dreams are real
And heartache will disappear
Just for a little while
It's where I'll go
When the world ignores me
Turning its cold back to me
It's a warm place
That keeps me alive
While I'm dying
Where I hold the ghosts of my memories
And I am filled with an imagined sense of security
In my favorite place
That disappears
As soon as I open my eyes
Who would help a rat
When he is broken?
He is nothing
If not
ASick
Selfish
Lowly
Creature.
A creature who was able to fool
The rest
With a prettyMouse
Mask.
Who would help a rat
That was once thought to be a mouse?
All of the mice would reply:
"Not I"
The final words
Are injected straight into my heart
Although it rejects the sudden intrusion
It begins to reluctantly pump the words
Through my veins
And they travel through each passageway
They can find
Burrowing themselves in every empty space possible
Until
They'd finally sunk in
And I knew it was all over
Bloody fingers dance on the skin,
The bones that have bloomed backwards.
Take me from the shadows of my frame
