The Open Canvas [Poetry]

After

Yes this poem is dedicated to the 'After' series by imaginator1D. It brought me on a roller coaster of emotions :) hehe

****

It's a never ending cycle on this roller coaster ride.
A ride you always try to control.
Your words injects poison into my veins.
Slowly distorting the love that flows within.
You feed me with the regurgutating taste of your past.
A dinner menu that diffuses into the ventilator of our thoughts.

I try to pick up the shattered glass with bloody fingers.
One that is a replica of the faith you have in yourself.
Self sabotage that ricochets off my heart,
Splattering the walls that has become a crime scene haven.
A scene disinfected by our connecting hands.
Our ship sails in the silent storm of the abyss.

I try to be your pacifier,
Even when you claimed to say I made you this way.
A line that is still engraved in the script we fervently play during screen time.
Yet, the passion and love that radiates from you scorches my skin.
You are not the only one covered in tattoos.

You are the inferno that engulfs the ashes of my life.
Melting away the skin that never really belonged to me.
You are my tormentor and saviour in one being.
A healthy dysfunctional love that connects our soul.
