Unspoken Burden

There’s a deep burning encumbrance Lagging within my torso Its lacerating my soul No explanation, ask Picasso Occasionally, I wish I never knew you Un-acquainting my best friend I bind fast and then I bruise When I feel like I’m losing you again I can’t express it verbally And it’s something you wouldn’t comprehend too You have human embroideries And what I have is you Cognizant of your concord You’re taking my unique one too It was like a smack in my face Asking me for something, I didn’t want to do How could you not know the backwash That cracked my benevolence I thought we were so adjacent Tout de suite moved my smile into spins. No explanation, just “Picasso” the sense of my verse I’m not devoted with love for you, I just feel demolished Like a once colourful stained glass Now gray and cannot be polished
