You've put me where I am,
And now you want me to take myself away...

Your wish is my command.

She waits

and she waits

and she waits.

So I guess she won't wait anymore...

Still Life/Fruit Bowl

She is reminiscent of that last piece of fruit
Left in the fruit bowl.
Covered in bruises.
Marks and scars
From being picked up and
Thrown back
One too many times.
Mouldy, dirty, unwanted.
Destined only for the bin.
To fester away.
Lonely
Wrinkly and
Old.

I do not love you
So stop asking me to
In your silences.
The torturous stillness you bestow on me
Breaks me
And then reinforces me.

she was losing everything. everyone. it was all falling apart, drifting away. she wasn’t sure she wanted to be any longer. it had only been three weeks since she had done what she had said she would never do again. but now she was feeling weaker than even then. she was broken. broken down. with no one to save her. how much longer was left?
there was no longer a happy ending waiting in the wings...

Within the clasp of a stronger creature
Nothing stands a chance.
The teeth rip out the heart
While maintaining its arrogant stance.
Watch the life fall away
Before realisation of what's at stake
Enters into an equation
As a future fiercely breaks.
