Watching

A sea of lies
Before a frozen shore
I am alone here
And it's so very cold

My viens are drying
Dripping, dying
I feel the pain
But the numb won't come

Fill me full
Of little lies
That hide behind
Your ice blue eyes

Drink me up
Reach into me
Let me get drunk
Off your smooth lies

Tell me all about her, Dear
Tell her where to shove it, Dear
I'm watching her drown
Smell the fear?

And here I lie watching
Slowly decaying
Watching your stories
Play against my ivory eyelids

Author notes

Do tell me all about her, Dear.
Make this work.

    well well well...

    Just let me be the first to comment then. Yes dear. We are alone. We are ALL alone. If you feel pain, that's great. At least it's something you can communicate. At least it's an emotion. At least we can still feel.

    ...Constricted lungs
    Pinched breath
    Gasping at
    Knotted words
    Trying to verbalize
    Trying to piece together
    The disconnected fragments
    Of his white hot memory
    Smothered under
    Cloak of
    Flameless consumption...

    Or something like that. My point is that it's much better than feeling nothing.
