poison.
in a dark and somber hallway
where no light ever shines
i crouch down, over myself
surrounded by glimmers
of long decaying wishes
/
dear you
who has poisoned my mind
thank you
for showing me
that i am worth more
than
roses
and a bouquet of lies
/
the breath i take rings silent
only the swans can hear
this letter i am whispering
across a blackened lake
/
dear you
who has charred my hands
with love
your flame may still be burning
yet it has swallowed
mine
