There is a bitter taste sitting in my mouth,
sitting upon my tongue, coating my lips.
Tears augment, fill me whole.
I pretend to be strong,
all the while I'm crumbling inside.
My heart falls into my stomach
which is full of butterflies.
These vicious things pick at my heart,
leave it scabbed, leave it torn.
Cautious words that imitate false love drift into my ears,
they tempt my mind and kick at my temples.
A shadow lays on my soul, hide all hope, all light.
My flesh eats at my bones and starts to creep.
Chaos surrounds an empty whole,
hiding beneath my heart, behind my stomach,
somewhere deep within,
mocking my pain, enhancing affliction.
My eyes are forced wide with miserable awe,
reflect nothing,
empty eyes, dead heart, sharp pains is all
that I am left with.
And that bitter taste in my mouth lingering,
un-welcoming, reminding me constantly.
