Mouth agape
Hungry for Heaven's wrath
Headlong with nightmares
Overflowing
Defiant I contrive these
Other worlds to thrive in
Dreams left stillborn
Stagnant and done trying
Brought to bare it all
Against the open source
Caught up in the fuzz
Overgrowing
Percussion fades
Still babbling by the river
Running out of themes
Still just repeating riddles
Banish this to fragile glass
Self-aware of these reflections
Approaching an event horizon
Bent by this maddening lensing
Meet me in the middle
Or never speak to me again
I guess I'll just resign myself
To never knowing what I did
I'd take these hands
And forge new sins
If I wasn't such a coward
Courage up in smoke
Make me a final offer
Or never say a single word
Either way I'm the one resolved
To a love I find insoluble
Such surreal and pretty monsters
Serene I set myself
Firmly in these fangs
Securely in this trap
These sensations so unfamiliar
Tired of self-detonation
I'd resign myself to servitude
If I could set off someone else
The cacophony between
Spells of madness cast
Is what makes this my music
Meticulous
In careful calculation
Glittering alliterations dance
Stars illuminate like wishes
Breathless I blow the candles out
Remaining in orbits synchronous
Now I let myself relapse
But shooting stars cannot align
In this atmosphere I just collapse
Closing the distance in my mind
I clasp my hands and hit my knees
I do not believe in the divine
I'm just wishing to be prey
Insecure but I know you
Wearing this pedestal thin
Endless pattern of push and pull
You still have no idea just how beautiful
Two left feet, bowing arms seeking
Still eager for dancing
Throne or throwing out my aching back
Desperation reaching
Fever pitch and flaming out
Never ceasing to sell myself
Still alone at the closing bell
Undersold
Let this cycle be sewn shut
Sealed and never opened up
Swallowing the sadness bitter
Shut my eyes with an empty tongue
Maybe I'm just made to suffer
Or never find the starting line
Sutured shut pathways of my future
Surgical, my cord of fate is cut
Tell this pleasant fiction
I've already matriculated
Straight A student of self-flagellation
Undergrad
Neck deep in empty obsession
Never deserving a second thought
Cut off and not worth repeating
Infinitely worth interrupting
Sometimes I wish for
A failure more intimate
A goodbye more imminent
Another set of second chances
Emergency, I've packed a bag now
Thrown together a few favorite memories
Vow of silence still intact
As I set this thing to blow
Wirelessly, this heart implodes
Ripped away by flowing floods
Let the tide of Catharsis take me
Undertow
