Spell-like
ERASE me from your memory.
DELETE the messages sent.
TOSS OUT my things,
THROW AWAY this life,
DITCH me at dawn, leaving me to the shadows.
BURN my pictures,
BURY the frames,
RID yourself of me-
Sealing me in the vault of your subconscious.
SUFFOCATE myself to sleep,
DRIFT AWAY into the NIGHTMARES
transforming into unsung lullabies.
WILTED while alive,
LIVING while dead,
a magician's box without illusions, only silence-
ABRA cadavers into this soul.
Fish swim in water
while drowning in our air.
Toxic people, nuclear hearts that leak poison.
Death comes swiftly,
quietly in the night.
