The Inevitable Abandonment

Unwanted
Unneeded
Shelved
That's what happens to 
Ragdolls 
When they dare to love 
Little boys who lie
About forever

Finality

Will there be a time
I can remember and 
Not bleed
Will I ever just
Forget it hurts
Will I be able to put
One foot in front of
The other 
Without the bed of coals
The scarf says yes
The bullet says yes
The razor says yes
The fumes say yes 
The bottle says yes
The pills say yes
My soul finally listens to them and
Whispers back 
Yes

Hostage

Haunted 
Shriveled husk 
The disease
Eating away
Gnawing
Leaving nothing behind
Be proud Dr Frankenstein
Of the creature you made
Look at it and know
You're the father of despair
The parent of worthlessness 
The mastermind of a broken soul
No one could ever love
A thing as hideous
As what stares back at me
Reflected in
My prison windowpane
