Its soul disintegrating slow and sure
Hollow echoes mock my calls
Rocking me in this turmoil I dread

Tell me I’m going to be alright
Etch it into the night, nail in your lies
Mouth those promises again, and then again
Say them sweet like you always do

Drown the cruel truth waiting in despair
Between those treasured lines that you swear
Hold me, make me believe, yet again
That we have each other, our love to regain

Tell me why I cant be with you
Give me your reasons, write them in water
Unwrap my wants in your chicane blankets
Cover me safe from your naked infidelity.

Yet another beautiful work of art, you really have a talent for writing in darker values.. Keep it up.

Good GREIF this was deep! (and yes, dark).
Painful almost to read. The title is perfect!

Great use of metaphors and the like. I love poetry
that makes me think and this was incredibly thought
provoking. Well done!
