riding the over-vert.

is this what we’ve become?
living parodies of love and loss,
can we really be all that lost?

we’ll come around
with nights like this are never ending
i try so hard to make this perfect
you and i somehow
we can’t see eye to eye together
we always knew that you worked better

and memorised
every last line of your profile.
Every shade of your complexion,
every tone of your skin.

A trance like state.
Entwinning our fates to another
The cost of our will now both bound to each other.
What was in your head
When you said
“until death”?

Why can’t you be…like a candle I can snuff?
You’re still a diamond in the rough.
And I swear to god…I had enough.
How can I…call your bluff?
