InDeed

A flicker,

a flame

is all i'm looking : read hoping, wishing, wanting for

But tragedy strikes

hard and quick

without warning smacks and stings

silence encapsulates systems

and suffocates

till you're smothered and covered

in plastic

a.n.t.i.p.a.t.h.y

Boil me in crimson oil

and devour me in your lackluster

being called: love

Silence me quickly

and silence me well

Cause when this is over

will I have a story

to tell

.indeed.
