i'm leaving
you're done
cut the cord
i will bare my heart
make sure it's sharp
make it quick
flash your will against me
relieve this red smear
smother the beating
dull the pulse
show mercy
spare it from your side
and i will rip
what was yours, what was living in me,
and return it to you.
do it while our hearts are still intact
before they rot in each other's care
before they become riddled with bitterness
choked by the stinking seeds
of resentment.
i'm sure a lot of you thought this was about love...but actually a friend of mine was killed this week. i'm young, and maybe that's no excuse, but i simply do not understand how life can be taken away with the flicker of a flame, with a wrong left turn, never to be returned.
