Emotional Pickle
Temptation lingers in a jar
my heart sliced into spears
the taste just a little sour
I don’t recognize this mirror
perfectly hidden madness
swallowed up by anger
How long can I contain it?
You feed on me for hours
Left shattered and delirious
This knot will inevitably unravel
A cracked smile oh so fragile.
