Compassion Killed Rhapsody

There’s sadness behind these eyes

Mottled hue of anger and remorse

And I can’t find the room to breath

If I some how change the lines of my prose

I’d sprawl back through infinity

Ravish the euphoria of being truly, completely

Weightless

Murder ignorance’s smile and break these brittle fingers

Whisper rapine vulgarities in the face of my damask lie

Brush lips with vanity and arrogance-hear sweet nothing

In my ears, white.static.noise

Confound glory and worship retribution and coin the term

And call it God

But I’m lost in this sonata of emotion-

Kiss.kill.scared.of.nothing

Floating mercurial, fey as moon dust and

Wishing I could move

I’m caught between farewells and

Twisted lust to

Break.you.down

But I know you’ll never show your pain

I mean hell, you never showed you cared either
