My temple is shaking
-------------
Foundation are breaking
The worms of indifference
Sickened with confidence
Above me, the vultures
Below, alligators
They circle
They circle
Willing me to falter
A misstep
A hurdle
A mistake
A blunder
My vision is blurry
My goddess in hurry
She calls out to me
I run, not for fun
I fall to my knees
Whisper please
She's somewhere else
Ignoring me, boring me
I lie by her doors
The wait I abhor
It eats me
It beats me
To pieces
To pieces
The longer I wait
The stronger my hate
It beats me
It eats me
From inside
From outside
The vultures are closer
They circle
They circle
I falter
I stumble
So why won't you love me?
So why won't you love me?
I don't know.
I know
ReplyDeleteI felt it
I ate it
Absorbed it
And grind it
In one bite
I swallowed it
And regurgitated
With my own frustration in it.
Because I understood it.
