Living Loveless
A breath escapes this lonely soul
jilted sigh expels it heavily falling flat
From on my back I see the stars align
...but only in other skies
as charcoal cumulous and birds of prey loom in mine
Each stab wound scars and scathes.
they accumulate-
Her indifference kills in it's lack of scorn
or spite...just apathetic attacks
Unprovoked and careless
Inclinations to instigate strife
....to bring flavorful drama to her life...
and misery to mine
I helplessly fall into these traps
seeking out affection in the dryest wells
hitting bottom and licking the stone
for it's scarcest moisture
Parched and living loveless
