Shred Me

Shred me.

Tear me up

and leave me wasted.

Crawl inside me

and poison me

from the inside out.

 

I’m dead anyway.

I was done the instant

I saw you,

standing in the afternoon sun

amid the straggling

crowd.

 

So obliterate me.

You know you can,

and somewhere inside,

you know you want to.

 

Give me mercy.

Put me down like a rabid dog

and end this nightmare

I’m trapped in.

 

There is no

life after you.

Another Fool

I want you to be overwhelmed

by me;

breathless,

dizzy,

unable to turn

away.

 

I want you to see me,

all of me.

I want you to want

to explore

all the hidden corners

wrapped in shadow

that no one else

can see.

 

I want you to persue me

relentlessly,

to fight for me

like I am your most coveted

prize,

your fate,

your only.

 

But you are lukewarm

in your attentions.

For all your

lust

you are empty of

passion.

 

There is no subtelty

to your art,

and your arrogance

betrays

your hand.

You love to play

the hero,

but you are just

another fool.

The Storm

The storm

wails deep inside;

it slams against the walls

and threatens to overtake me.

I feel the ground begin to slip away;

it crumbles into the dark wind.

That wind crumbles me too.

I’ll not escape

the storm.
