destroy something beautiful to create something new.

By i tremble

something inside me
is clawing my
inpirationally challenged soul
with ink dipped quills.

wide-eyed,
i'm sleepless
and in pain.

with a one-eyed needle,
i sew chunks of
mutilated hearts together.

who i destroy
in the process
does not matter.

what matters is that
the story
is told.
