Outer Space
Even in deep space, your love holds me down, Your embrace has weight, and keeps me coming, back…
I wonder where you are and what you’re doing, curious to
know who’s loving you.
You invade my thoughts pervasively without warning, like an atomic bomb, each
memory annihilates the landscape of my serenity.
I suppress my urge to reminisce about your
cancerous kiss, now convinced that we were never meant to be.
The chemicals between us reacted so
violently, that every turn led us to catastrophe.
Infiltrated by images of you, my sanity
becomes diseased.
Deflated, I died a
thousand times with you, tolerated your abuse for far too long.
Yet still the burning question remains of how
I could still care for you, an emotion whose guilt cuts me like a
guillotine.
Held hostage by the
hostility that has locked itself inside my head and thrown away the key, your
misery preferred my company.
Freedom
from you is my fondest dream, a fantasy so frequent that it feels like reality
though the truth remains that your toxicity infected my bloodstream.
Critically ill now as I slip in and out of
consciousness, as my heart hopes that I imagined you and that you did not
exist.
I close my eyes for the last time
with eternal sunshine in my newly spotless mind, you have been erased as my
elated soul floats up to outer space.
“The chemicals between us reacted so”
