The One Who Gets In The Way

It seems blackly comical that I persist in loving you even after the time has long since past. You misreading situations from the past like time immemorial. You wanted to be queen, you wanted to have the same feeling that destroyed me as a teenager. Petty jealousies run rife with you. Now you've got someone who has the same petty jealousies you once had. I'm just the enemy who gets in the way. The feelings I believed in but was always too muted for your liking - too timid, no grandstanding acts of love and devotion. You pinpoint the negatives without looking at the reasons why. And if you did you'd twist them to suit your agenda. But then again, this time isn't your fault. You got ambushed when your guard was low and I would've worn you out with my medical provisions. It just hurts when I'm the one who gets in the way. My bitterness has always been a part of me. I've said we'll still be friends but I sometimes wonder if that's the right decision. The...

Cold And Cruel

  In the moment that the word was said, twist the knife in me. The fact she's not around makes it that much harder. You've moved on from me and to her dying day liked me for who I am. She went to the ends of town to get the right food that keeps me somewhat healthy. I couldn't repay her enough with my gratitude. I'll miss her. I'll miss you.

I wish things turned out differently and my anger never showed. You'd still complain about things I never do to you and bring up old complaints again because you just want to lash out. You'd cut me to pieces and expect me to run like a big old dumb machine. But a moment o...

Bring Forth The New Dawn

The waste becomes a way to synthesise disillusion. Wondering what scars will heal and which will not. A verifiable token of esteem. Wittered away easily when complaints are done with the advent of mercies. A killing is in the offing. But we orchestrate to demonstrate and what use are we to argue? Twisting words decide what lies we can break with underneath. The small whisperings amid the low lying noise filters. The tarantulas working their way out of perspex ovens. What are we to do but accept the living fate of lives lost underneath. The traps used to ensnare and the little cost to look at illicit photos decry the path of an idiot's errand. A poor fool who wants to retreat into invisibility. Boundaries forged and crossed. The contents left unsaid. A matter for reflection but rejection is the final sum. A horrible context but somehow unsurprising. The theatrical appeal of being good running hollow. It's all so desperate and disparate to be dispiriting. If I only survive tomorr...
