you tried to take me out
like a date to my own gravesite
you whispered sweet nothings in my ear
dangerously sweet
like chocolate stuck in a cavity
trapped in the cage of my minds eye
a prisoner to my own thoughts
shackles
when your mind betrays you
it’s a slow death that flows into a river of blood
it’s poison to touch
to think
you fight for your freedom because it’s all you have
all you want
so i’m fighting for my life
it’s mine
you can’t take me out
i’m hard to kill.
