your heart will explode he said do something quick!
don’t you care about dying here’s more guilt for you think of who you’ll leave
grieving behind do something quick!
she was eight when innocence ended do something! quick!
unprotected from the sickness of her bloodline’s urges she vanished
do something! quick!
he rubbed up against her eight year old ass
exploding her childhood lost into a wet spot on the back
of a summertime shirt then gruffly dismissed her to the other side of the neighboring
fence do something, voices screamed inside her young head quick!
protect me! explain betrayal to me! staunch this confusion a child begged quick!
and no one heard her silent pleas do something quick!
she brooded into young adulthood sailed medicated through decade after decade
care, she laughed? this body cannot define me do something quick!
she spent a lifetime shrouded in preparation for exodus vanish this pain of life
has timed the end of this heart’s steady beat from this chest do something
for this has eaten me alive quenched a bitter thirst do something quick
each sweet taste each savory bite swallowed in gluttony was meant to fill
the unfillable void inhaled through air a belly’s growl do something
broken into the bed of a lifetime preparing strands of organ muscle chunks of
failing overtaxed heart there is no breath left
beat out of this oversized chest do something! quick!
spend such little time sucking on death’s sweet morsels
do something
quick
forgive
quick
love, eternally
quick
do something! quick!
too late
he grinned in his evil
i have
won
your life
