Figure

The urge to write. The urge to speak.

No urge to listen. No urge to feel.

A penchant to your doubts and I feel like I'm falling.

Deep into the hole of your sentiment and pity.

Take it back. I don't need your half-hearted excuses and the look of your unwavering irises beneath amber stains.

Take your grief. For I can't bear it with you no longer.

You're distant even in your sleep and I can't take it upon myself to bring you back.

You'll drift and drift until you find peace with your spirits and self-pity.

I won't wait for you to realize that once you encounter grief, it builds a home inside of you and it will never leave.

You see a silhouette that's slender, well-built and a towering figure.

You needn't look past its shadows to realize that it is your greatest sorrow.

An abundance of carnal regrets.
