I tore into you this morning
I can’t remember the motive
But this dark season
Never seems to change
*
All our days rest critical
In the belly of a ravine
Like the dismantled girls
Of serial delusionists
Despite association
There exists a loneliness
More pervasive in knowing
*
No matter the volume
Of the expletives consumed
This noxious silence
Remains unbroken
Our pockmarked hearts
Retire from war
Assume a truce
That is itself injurious
*
Our bedroom is split
With yellow tape
Both perpetrator and victim
We bond to our respective sides
Uncompromising
Premeditated
Pernicious
*
This is a reblogged post but I deleted the original and posted it normally. This particular post had no views, comments, or likes and I wanted to make sure everyone could view the post in full with no weird complications. I realize some of you are having difficulty with the reblogged posts I have had issues myself in the past.
First you need to visit my WordPress page https://mindlovemisery.wordpress.com/
Then click on the title of the poem you would like to view “Bonsai” for example
Lastly click on the black link that appears above the photograph Reblogged from mindlovemisery clicking on that link will take you to the original post. If you have followed these steps and the like button is still invisible or there is any other weirdness please let me know.
I am not sure how reblogged posts work through reader but I have a suspicion that it’s not functioning properly as I am receiving notifications for likes that do not appear on the actual posts
