this is delicious
blasphemy on a string
startled puppet
and i pulled you too close.
this can only take me in further.
and i kept your smile just in case
you decide to swing my way again.
it's never as dark as when we hit the
light switch. open mouthed feeding frenzy
and i've never felt so anxious until today.
but this was a cement block anchored
to your fragile paper-cut existence
and it only stings when the lies
come in. it only stings when you let it.
and i've never felt so anxious until today.
i've never been more ready to just
let it.

"C'mon abuse me more I like it"
