Description
I inhale your sins until I spit black,
Iron sitting heavy on my tongue,
And in this lighting I can see red splitting my teeth.
It must have been when you made war with my lips,
Though I can't remember if it was your teeth
Or your fists that cut me -
Head wounds tend to confuse me like that.
This love leaves me exhausted.
There is red beneath my eyes
And lines that part my face,
Lines your hand carved
With digging fingernails
That held my head in place
As you gazed
Deep into my eyes,
Anchoring me there so I that could not move.
You dug your way deep inside my brain
Like a worm
And now I see snakes writhing in the corners of my vision,
Tunnelling my sight -
I feel you and your wriggling in the hollows of my teeth,
Behind my ear I hear the white noise whispers of flesh flies -
You're just out of sight, out of reach,
But never out of mind
(A leech)
You've infected every cell, and
How can I be free of my own veins?
I can't even tell us apart anymore
