Ashen Scabland |
| You wear your shield of crust |
| Face creased with years of rust |
| Ribcage filled with cement |
| Two decades of resentment |
| Bit my tongue |
| Choked on blood |
| A mess no one mopped up |
| Hard not to scream |
| When steel wool |
| Is your blindfold |
| And you can’t find what’s hidden |
| No one said you had to stay |
| Crippling fear of solitude |
| Squalling bastard in your way |
| Three isn’t company |
| I won’t reconcile |
| Or show my throat |
| Part of the curse |
| You proffered me |
| Am I a blister on your heel? |
| Or a limp you can’t hide? |
| Or a vessel for your vitriol? |
| A cup that runneth over |
| This isn’t what you want |
| But time’s not on our side |
| Where do you think you’ll go when you die? |
| I’ll chew on glass |
| I can’t swallow my pride |
| Walk through the door |
| I’ll leave through a window |
| I should see someone |
| But that means learning where I went wrong |
| It kills me too |
| It kills me more than it kills you |
| When half of me is you what part of me is left to trust? |
| I’m imprisoned by your name |
| And your generosity |
| Olive branches burn on the pyre |
| For every inch you’d always raze a mile |
| One step forward |
| Two steps back |
| Falling swiftly to snap my neck |
