chaos

bahahhahahaaaaa

there is always a greater evil

and name it

me

i can barely begin to understand

how difficult it needs to be

to be in love with either of us

break it once more

i fucking dare you

watch me shatter

do you think I’m pretty

?

i just cannot bleed anymore for you

i have run out of things to bleed

last night as i lay in bed

she threw a brick through my window

as i tried to recapture sleep

i was cut by the shards of glass

this morning in the clarity of day

i bricked up my window

if she cannot see me

she cannot aim

as the window boarded

as bricks versus bricks

i can sleep tranquil

i am defeated

by an enemy i never saw

in a battle i had no idea that i was in

this

this is loving you

why do you ask these questions

why can’t you be quiet and love me

for my answers

for the quiet

for my love

i sit here thinner

a skeleton

i lost my flesh to love

and my heart you ask

too big for this bone bag

can you feel it beat

as i cannot

so far away

in my chest

have you ever thought

that your battles of today

would have been better fought

on the plains of bloodshed of the times past

that the sofas we sit on

should have been thrones of wood and steel

that the words we type upon keys

should have been swords against armour

hammers on skulls

i do in 2014

we loose our focus

the focus of blood, mud, and tears

should have been

focused on the sins of others

and the bleeding bodies of the weak

unlike your false knights

i can draw blood from a stone
