Untitled,

You induce a gentle phycosis 
when you take yourself as leverage,
smash my mind into fragments and
bevel the jagged edges of my loneliness
Though I've been known to be derelict with my love
with this, you leave no peaceful resolution
When you finally go, the sinkhole you'll leave 
will consume me
Please, let me piece together a sweetened illusion
let me keep enough of you to survive
