Played

resentment 
a pendant
for those who
lose their heart
control of feelings
emotion
and commotion-
it's all a game
i've gone insane-
the devotion

wake me up from this nightmare
catastrophic days 
shove a knife in my abdomen
but you're not even there
not even despair-
those flaws-
love is blind
misconception of reality
you pull the knife-
wrench it up to the chest
power

lighting trapped in a bottle
what's left
trapped against will
trapped in a lie
that you created
dated
and disintegrated.
