Chewed Gum

The flood reaches it's plateau before I reach shelter and I drown in the sorrow of it all. No longer safe in the arms of the forever that expands beyond the earth, beyond reason. You were the gift from a god I couldn't hold onto and though I tried, I could never bring you into me, rather onto my like a switchblade hacksawing through my rotting corpse. So clever were you in all your usual ways that I didn't see it coming until it came like a shotgun blast right into my chest and out of my heart. Falling into a canyon seems easier than this, this begging for forgivemess for sins that were not my own still it's my fault anyhow. At least that's what you said when I let you go, let you be, now watch me bleed. Say your prayers , I'm done, for I cannot be this for you-to you anymore. Yes, tonight with this ring I thee cast aside for something a little more stable..a little brighter. More so than the sun that you mourn the passing of like time infinitely wise in it's wisdom, infinitely slow in it's..what's that you say? I can't hear you over the rain, can't see you through the fog and here we go blessed be you are beautiful but wasteful and I am done with this game. The strumming of my heart has ceased to be, yes I know you don't care now and I don't want to but i do. G'nite!
