Untitled


As the crimson collagen caresses continue
Anxiety creeps in the corners
Disgust, replacing numbness, in trembling hands
Looking in the mirror, I reflect
Wishing I am not me
Wishing you were not you

This cup I hold overflows
The sweet tasting nectar
You wish to drink
I cannot serve to you

As shallow orbs gaze upon hopeless stars
Thrice have I peered into them
And embarked on a journey
Never more poisonous than this
Wishing I was not me
Wishing you were not you

This cup you hold overflows
The sweet tasting nectar
I tried to drink
You shouldn't serve to me

As the glowing gray box gives gratitude
Gratefulness greets gray eyes
Sunrays that are undeserved envelop me
Looking into the mirror, I reflect.
Wishing I am not me.

Wishing I am not me.
