How long is too long to wait?
How long until I can finally lose my pretence of sanity
And fill your inboxes with my lunacy?
I will write your name with my blood all over the walls
You build around your heart,
It’s just platonic, I murmur in the dark.
The demons morph to look like you,
Holding a gun to my head, blaming me
For the wreckage of our ship.
You are forcing me to drown .
Anything is better than your indifference, so I let you
Push my head into the water
I preserve the bullet in a glass case shaped like my heart.
You’ll perhaps then see how fragile I really was ,
And the stone you pretended I had in my chest was a life you
Destroyed to feel better about yourself
