Mummified

By amphibianrose

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Here I sit after years of waiting. A tomb for me, my mind is creating. I have felt incased in these walls. Never hearing the desert coyote calls. I thought you had treated me with the best of care. Wrapped me with truth that nothing could snare. My head feels so empty, the space you cannot fill. My thoughts have been removed, my senses beginning to reel. Your chemical kisses were placed on me to preserve. The treatment you placed on me,not finished, it was more than deserved. My love is discolored and old, crumbling into dust. For you as my master, I can no longer trust. You say the words to awaken me, to bring me to your needs. Well, I have a new master now, my heart for you now bleeds.
