Queen of Hearts

By Disassembly Boy

You cut me deeply with razors,
the razors you kept in your lips.
With a tongue like poison, so swollen,
you filled up my mouth until it bled.
Left me with a loss of words.
Twist my arm and I'll spill my guts all out onto the floor.
But I could never tell you everything.
The truth sugared in lies
and every sweet syllable-
Every unspoken thought I felt when you pushed your face into mine made the kiss even bloodier.
I could almost read your thoughts.
It was haunting how I'd never been more content
then when I saw the hatred in your eyes;
The way you wanted to consume me and spit me back out.
So I memorized the lines
and as you made your way down my throat,
just before you pulled away-
I felt you take what wasn't yours.
