conscience

broken

flawed

and fallibile

i feign confidence

collusion

of inner demons

darkens

an already spotty  

gl(ue).oom

eme(u)rgency

is where i feel fallen

i betrayed

my.self

you.we couldn't see

left bereft

i can't speak as i, foreign 

language

no subtitles can't decipher or see where to go

never before, have i felt so fucking low

glow becomes the red

said

wouldn't.couldn't.

no mother i won't

don't make me promise or swear,

on my grave i say

that it won't weigh on my conscience tomorrow
