eight legged with the looming threat of a bite

you are constructed of a false evil

they dance around your skill, your brains ,your heart

and you are crushed beneath their feet
without a sound

a faint whisper made of rumors

they want to weave a web like yours
but the sun will never hit theirs

they are doomed to live in spite

it's not like they ever understood you in the first place

grew up with the psych ward lurking around the corner

i kept to myself because i knew where id end up should i speak a word

fabric rubs against my scars as a constant reminder

they tell me im a failure like you didn't do that enough

am i your shadow?

or am i hiding from the light?

its funny how you find flaws in everyone but yourself

like living with one side of your mirror

do you see my marred skin as a fault on your part

and your failing marriage as a missing spike in your picket fence?

do i symbolize your loss of freedom you never gave yourself

and is that why you take away mine?

your love only comes from one half of your heart

the other spent on yourself

because you don't even want yourself

-----
you took away my wings

i saw you and you were beautiful

i gave you my feathers
because you had none
and i sewed them to your bones

but now im drained
and im empty

all for nothing

all you are is nothing

an angel fell from heaven
missed her stop in hell
and landed in my arms like an orphaned child

-----
calloused fingers run down soft skin like the strings of a guitar

vocal chords linger in the air, wrap around each other

legs wrapped around each other, tangled. skin against skin

combat the flesh


love with a soul
