if only i could burn all
that i felt for you
if only i could burn all
that you meant to me
i could maybe begin
to heal
maybe begin to
feel
hate
love
all these things i fought
all there things strove to overcome
maybe you're the last
maybe you're the last that
i will ever
weep over
bleed over
dwell over
i'm done
i'm done with you
i'm done crying over you
i'm done abiding you
i'm done enduring you
needless to say
i'm over you....
all i long to do is thrive
all i long to do is live
somwhere beyond this
passive parasitic existance
i call life
i only want a sign
something signifying
that things will get better
if i could only see that
i'd change anything
just to feel something
i only want to face
the only one i never can
i only want to face
the one that i can never escape
i only want to face
the onlly one left
i only want to face
my own face left in the mirror
i only want to face
the one holding my back
the one prohibiting me
from truly accepting
from all i hold inside
this isnt meant to hurt
this isnt meant to offend
too many times have i been scorned
too many times have denied
the worst form of rejection,
is that in the form of
false acceptance
the idea that someone
accepts you
loves you
includes you
for who you are
but then denies you
forsakes you
for everything you
had already given
everything you've already promised
you cannot take that back
you cannot suppress the hurt
you cannot suppress the reality
everything is decay
only you and i
know our truths
there is no jury
for our reality
one day you'll finally wear me down
one day you'll finally break me
one day you'll send me to the brink
all i want you to know is
i want you to see
that there was a precursor
there was a precident
a person can only be worn down
for so long before they
finally call it quits
finally say
no more
no rest for the wicked
that scorned heart cried
she lied at night
tossed and turned
only hoping for the brain
to shut down
to quiet to calm
to silence to cease
the neverending what ifs and why fors
that plagued a weakened state
nothing could ever be explained
no nothing could ever be resolved
but that would not bring the sleep back
no nor could it give back what
the night used to hold
so deep within the grasp it was held
the penance unknown.
lasting oblivion shines no forgiving light upon the faithful
those rested upon bended, calloused knees
pleading to a false prophet behind a bloodstained altar
the faithless find solace in a freed and enlightened mind
however slaves to their own disillusion
the colaboration of shame love hate and beauty can be found
in broken bones or a garden of flowers
everything we are is nothing in the end
supplicating towards a broken idol
will allow you no favor in the eyes of nihility
the broken beauty lies upon the cold porcelain floor
a life so loathed for no other reason than spite
lay cracked, a waste
a selfish sacrifice to spit in the face
of the ridiculous agglomeration
and in almost a reprisal,
another, falls upon those calloused knees once again
pouring a scarred heart upon the shrine
fit not for savior saint nor matyr
