unphased
faking each act,
victim to this strangers path
fighting for a hand to grab.
breathing badly with baited breath
flailing over this statute of limitations
i’ve given you free range of my soul
falling to the floor half dead
i’ll extract my exact revenge

-facilitating my life
matching my heart's rhythm to yours
fearing i’m never going to make it back
shredding what was left of me
filtering the strength
mark my words.
fitting punishment to the pain
you’ll get what’s coming.

flames encompass my body
burning everything down
flesh singed to shriveled black muscle
nothing left but the dead
fabricated stories fill empty heads.
a mute point in this story
failing to reach my goal.
the rest better left untold.
