You shall not pass To thee do we come We are who we are No need to be afraid We are one persons But one is whole The other is not Shall not pass You are who you will be Not who you choose to be No need to be with someone You are not meant for You shall not pass that persons love They shall do the same You are whole While the other is not No one is going to hurt you From now on
Cool fingers around my neck Squeeze for an delightful sound While cracking different kinds of bones
“Dear, dear Sweety, I’m here,” Trailing their fingers to my chest
Cool fingers surround my heart Squeezing in glee at the watery sound While my murky blood stains their mouth
“Dear, dear Have a taste will you?” They offer me their lips; I drink
Hot blood invades my throat The taste, the sweet, metallic taste Leaves me begging for more
“Sir, sir More please; continue my suffering!” My mouth begs, even as their cool fingers descend
Hot pain erupts from my abdomen Their punch was hard—needed Looking up, I their bloodstained lips curve
“Sir, sir More sir, more!” But they do not—
So I dig my own cool fingers into my chest Curling them carefully around my neck Surrounding them upon my heart
Squeeze Listen Drink
Longing for sunshine Wishing rain would cease Hoping that love comes Striving for peace
My dreams dance merely within my mind They have never been the daring kind
But perhaps the problem starts with me My failure to try to set them free
Maybe these things can still be real Supposing someone finds the strength to feel
The strength to feel sunshine The strength to ignore the rain The strength to show love to the world The strength to live together
Without shame
Crap. My meds have maxed. Still feeling pretty fucking bad. Second medication too. What to do?
Distract. Distraction, Book that’s new. Distract, From the hollow left beforehand. Distract, From the fear that’s new. Distract, From the fear that’s prehistoric too.
New distraction, How ‘bout you? Done. We’ve made the deal. Don’t be hurt by what’s not real. Don’t take my choices personally. That will go poorly. Prepare for the Lie. The big lie. When you hear that, Let slide
You bought yourself games Just what you get with me. Disclosed by the contract, Remember that? For description regarding “character” ‘Twas written, Good fine print.
Legal now. Looks like poor consideration. Sorry’s might be due, My tongue can run, Maybe this time’ll end well Maybe not
