ugly suffocation

By aiwaz

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

you breathe the air of my words but dont know it i suffocate you softly unseen inside yr head i see you when yr ugly i see you when you cut yr nails and dream of other men i feel you in my ribs gnawing, devouring eating me inside out you scream with my breath weep with my blood but i wont let you surface inside of me down, down deeper down ill hold you til you drown hold you til yr voice is gone scream now without a sound... you are my fish in a bowl you circle yr dreary life as i watch you from abovethis is not about me!
