Ink Poisoning
April 22, 2021
The price I paid for validation,
Worship drenched disgust
All the things I could’ve said
bled into a cut
The price I paid for sleepless nights
exhausted in a daze
All the places we went together
chase me through the frames
The price I paid for loving you,
Currency aside,
All the memories I recall
spill into my eyes
