Little Known Nothing Poet Free verse

Explosion

I am explosive 
You stupidly take it
Ripping away at you
Shredding skin
Shattering bone
Battering you 
With harsh words
Wounds slightly open
I pour salt into the cracks 
of long forgotten mistakes
A life sentence
Lived on borrowed skin
As I continuously wound you
Again 
And again

I held you up
But I needed holding
But I held you up instead

I will kill you slowly for this
I will rip your skin from your body
Only to heal it with kisses

Fire surrounds me 
Licking my skin lovingly
The electric blue of your eyes
Amongst the bloodshot
Keeping anger in
Searing me
This is beauty to me

I am explosive
There's nothing you can do for it
So hold on to what I was 
As that girl won't be here long
She let you get away with everything

Inspiration turned to shards
Sharp as razors
She's no longer here 
Do you not see
I kicked her out
The moment you tasted infidelity
