My Frankenstein

I want to tear your torso from your legs
Yet not harm a hair on your head
An angel with reluctant wings
A crooked halo, dressed in red,
Your white gown gone from mem’ry
As is the kindness from your smile
Your conscious is the only sentry
Towards your life's final trial.

When I saw you I saw trust
Permeate from your being
Now I watch my gold dreams rust
Try to forget what I’m seeing
All I’m feeling as I’m kneeling
By my bedside, both eyes bleeding
Love receding; now I must

Tear you from your chest to your feet
But I don’t want to kill a fly
And use my hands to then repeat
The actions you used to nullify
The trust and love and thoughts of you
As the kindness in your smile
Your conscious is the only sentry
Towards your life's final trial.

Hair unkept, floors unswept,
Tears awept, doors are left
Wide open, as I’m hoping for an explanation
To the lies, to trust’s demise,
Heaven’s disguise, Hellish ties
That have rended me to trepidation…

Tear you from your mind to your heart
But I can never hurt anyone
The way you tore my life apart
You’d make a promise, then you’d run
So far away and not return
Without so much a reason, good-bye...
Just like my trust, I hope you burn
Your conscious will hopefully fry
You at your final trial
As I watch and as I smile.
