Crashing smashing
Claws slashing
Teeth gnashing
Thrashing my heart,
The depth of my soul
Into the wall.
The bell tolls once and I’m
Inconsolable.
A hypnotic ding that stings
With such intensity that I balloon
Into monstrosity,
Furiously holding the barbed wire
That pulls back my gums
Of cold daggers.
Ferociously, I pierce
The gurgling growth
To release the bile of gross
Hate-vomit that will split
Your bones apart with my soul.
Die! I cry as I stab and bludgeon
My essence of grudging sanity
Smudged with past abuse.
I’ll assassinate myself before allowing myself
To hurt you.
