Red Journal

She stole it
She broke it
Just like a vase
The glass has yielded to the shade
A repetitive pattern of a melancholy present
She left my soul to devious peasants
The metal so cold
And Cylinder like
How I hate the worn stare
Of misery’s pipe
The look of an Angel
So quickly turned
I muttered “In Hell”
Before feeling the burn
We danced on charcoal
Calluses on our feet
The pain we felt was inflicted on each
Both abandoned by love
and oppressed by the fallen
We laughed as we danced
To the deadly somber forgotten
Forever to suffer
Forever scared
She stole it
She broke it
Never to be spared
She stole it
She broke it
And the demons didn’t care
