[sitting at the top of the stairs]

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

sitting at the top of the stairs listening to the knives you spit out fly towards each other you pour boiling water on already burned skin you dig deeper in a wound thats been alive for so long you knew what it held when you signed that contract years ago you knew the terms it set for the rest of your life and you signed it live with the consequences of a hastened decision but dont make me miserable while you bear your situation you're not even trying but you signed for life Written March 31st, 2002 © on Mar 31 2002 07:07 AM PST   10 • 0
