Wydra
If you try to escape your fears
they will find you in your dreams,
present you with a forgotten truth, to be forgotten
no more.
To hurt and abuse you
in the land of shadows.
Those who reserve a place
closest to your heart,
will fix you with blank stares
enforcing their indifference.
To hurt and abuse you
in the land of shadows.
It’s that all these words are stolen
not truely mine, but yours to beholden.
The worlds a stage, and all the men and women merely
cowards.
And yet, you accept the abuse
till the sun burns itself to smoldering ash
and the moon arises to hear you mutter,
“Tomorrow I’m going to kill myself.”
For you are but a pill
these humans can swallow,
easing their uneasiness
as you slide down their throat.
Vindication.
To hurt and abuse you
in the land of shadows.
