and slowly slip away through the same corridor that you left through once before
My heart, still marred by your previous dismissal, is pulsating with agony
I don't think I'll survive the second time round
Albeit my brain has vast worldly knowledge you showcase its gaping hole that distorts my perception till it hurts logic itself.
I feel you in the gallows of my seared soul
This fancy utopia we've accidentally created exists only in theory
no matter how hard I try to nullify this hankering of validation
In a perfect universe you would lift the weight and say fuck the money and fuck the fame
In a beautiful world you'd journey across the cracked paved judgement to find me
In an honest world you could care less that I exist no matter how sweetly I sing of what fate dictates
In this world we are more than worlds apart and I am the only one to notice
In this life you love materials to build your houses of cards with while I save my breath to blow them all down
Will you ever see that my cards are on the table?
Travesties wrapped in neat little parcels arrived at my door to forewarn of foolishness burning within.
Pitifully I continue to dance and twirl and dream of impossibility and damaged hopes.
Floating in time and space where you have no place.
But I'm still waiting here for you with each blink of these dark hollow eyes welling up with senseless longings
Will you ever play the hand you've been dealt?
Or is it simply that you've never gambled?
