My Cadaver Eats My Manuscripts Now (instead of me)

I'm writing a novella,
My solemn Cinderella,
Red velvet vendetta
A scrapbook for two.

We know what's inside
Sweet, saccharin cyanide
The words refuse to hide
Till the telling is through.

I fight the jurisdiction
Of critics and their predictions
My novella is mostly fiction
Of what could've been me and you.

A depressive mess of gore
Whose masochism wanted more.
Every page is written for
The parts of each other we can't pursue.
