Breaking Skin

Surely may I be certainly stable But behind this eerie differing insincere gaze Is a needle  On the verge of breaking skin Just a moment of peace Before the deafening horror filled haze As if I'm a twig Bending but not breaking Awaiting a momentary snap The clock ticks and tocks away Like the beat of my bloodless heart My bold are loose My nuts are juiced I am totally screwed Contemplating my misguided soul As it slowly molds Quietly I turn cold The sickness takes over Once again Escapes the darkness within
