The mirror cuts a ghastly shape all hollow eyes sunk in a mask of pallid flesh
peering back at me
the hours vanish empty days and trembling hands peel last years skin away from new, the glistening sheen of youth
everyone gets scared love no one likes to be alone
no matter where you are love you’ll never be to far from home
I’ll rip your fucking heart out and hold it up for you to see there’s nothing you can do girl i’ll keep you close to me
your stomach heaves with each caress the taste of my dementia wet upon your lips eyes wide in disbelief
you’ll wear each threat like a promise, kinder words never said i’ll face my fears with my conscience clear and my hands stained red.
