1.) Cruelty

1.) Cruelty

Oh what a woman was she
The sound of her name ravishes 
Poison to my ears
In all her glorified cruelty 
A travesty smile
Thin as slit wrists
My blood evaporated through her sinister kiss
She grazes her fingers against my skin 
Seething through gentle manipulation 
The exterior crafted in faded gold
Lassoing lonely fools 
To the nubile innocence that she portrays
In her words, love is not a promise
Only words to feed into insane spontaneous delusions
The high descends down
Melting away the waxed mask of superficial bliss
Into abusing self-inflicting contusions 
The tight rope marked abrasions around my forearms 
Amputates my heart on sleeve 
Engulfed inferno, doused in gasoline
Burned into self-sabotaged, sacrificial protest  
My remains dragged through the dirt 
Shatter my skull, bashing through penetrated rock 
Greeted with a smile
Parted by a bullet in my chest
Say you can't live without me
As you drain yourself in regret 
Lost in your isolation of obscured identity
Our bond torn apart into scattered vulnerability
This sensitive boy shattered to the floor
Into microscopic shards of a man you claimed to adore
Let go of the glass of wine I poured
Shot down into the dusk, dissolved by your cruelty.
