Gone
What have
We done
To each other?
I stare vacantly
In your eyes
Where others
Have curled up
Along the curves
Of your pupils
To perish in
The mine fields
Of your intense
Blood shot gaze.
Passion is an
Important factor
Yet it leads
Most to marinate
In their own
Madness.
It quivers,
It grinds
Deep inside
The racing pulse
Hiding behind
Refusing ribs.
It roams and
Creeps up my
Spine,
Inhaled through
My cringing
Mouth
And into
The spinning
Blood stream.
Yet when all
That fire
Subsides,
When it ceases
To exist
Through disintegrating
Cells,
And when
The masks
Come off
At the dinner
Party
The tea
Is poured
And we become
Our selves.
We rupture each
Others
Bodies,
We convolute
Each other's
Minds,
We abuse trust
And push
Each other
To our solemn
Demise
With an anchor
Holding us
Hostage beneath
The weight
Of an infinite
Ocean.
What will
We do
To each other?
