There's no way to escape the complications I left behind. The memories are enough to eat me alive but sometimes you just have to leave them behind.
So many photos never found their way into the bags I packed,
(but a painting with two eyes blended at a crack?)
When sentences are set ablaze why put out the flames when they're intended for you?
Maybe action was singed by charred words.
-Ethane radiated from your pores while a flammable tongue encouraged growth-
The demons you feared the most only asked for an invitation.
You didn't have to let them in.
Now you're their hostess
This is you're storm to weather, now entertain.
Don't keep them waiting.
------------------------------------------
If you give me burdens don't think I'll come out unscarred
It's just that life's too short to let it leave you marred.
------------------------------------------
What happens when everything you loves becomes everything you fear?
Would it make sense just to let it all disappear?

Literature
Retrospection
We beg for mercy,
to be pardoned
of a sin not of
our own volition;
to escape what
haunts the mind
through dreams
and distorted images.
There is an escape,
but it seems far-fetched,
and it only leads
to further damnation.
Breaking the silence
with a subtle scream;
still the heart is
shattered with memories.

Doll
The still doll
Behind the glass
Is only watching
The time pass
The antique doll
Gathers dust
As she watches
Metal rust
As she watches
Memories fade
As the time
Passes away
She doesn't know
She isn't real
That still doll
She can't feel
Literature
Contrition
Your expression is
one of sincere regret.
Has your light already
faded to darkness?
Let the sorrow that
dwells within your heart
linger outside the soul.
