you recoiled from me

By whisperer

somniferous indefference peppers a blackened lip i hold between my teeth





each breath removes my wings one feather at a time


explosions of a whisper die again wading in my own desire, disappointment and confusion



i'm not untold or mysterious

just undone and a little delerious from when you recoil and run away




dont fret pretty i'm here



breaking like a poison in your mind




the crown on your head sings like sheep in a slaughter house



and i'm left smiling chaotic disallusion






did i get what i came for?






speechless cant describe my reaction because surprise had not begun and i am no design under the rythem of a war drum






break the echo of my whispers

i can only be one tragidy at a time







just as long as i am not desperate or lose intention whatever so long as i can watch you find emptiness and loss of memory at the bottom of a bottle



like me
the poison devil




ad i should be erased from memory
i'm a nameless face in a thousand ways


a bad dream of intoxication


a memory lapsed enough to breathe in the rhythem of a war drum
