Tragedy

Encrypted understanding.
Beckoned initiative. 

Your lies are a tragic remedy
to an oblivious fate.

I welcome chaos,
for I have no sanctuary.

Bleed your aura;
Your color is fading.

Supple emaciation;
Your words choke my reality.

I strive toward the unattainable.

Kiss the illogical,
and suffer cruelty at the hands of
my own weakness.

Release me.

We both,
should have just kept walking.
