The Assailant

I trampled the pavement with a steady cadence.
My soles are worn. My soul is flagrant.
I cured your ailment with my own inhalant.
You breathed me in. I choked in silence.
I buried your fragrance with countless vagrants.
My bed is full. My heart is vacant.
When it came time for my bereavement
There was no mourner, only a patient.

I thought I cured your ailment.
But it turns out to be that you were the assailant.
You shot right through me,
But the pain was the only thing that knew me.
As the tissue breaks, the shards start to divide me.
How can you move on while the pieces move inside me?
Still, I refuse to remove the wounds you gave me.
And the doctors say there's no other way to save me,
But if I already lost you don't go on and save me.
Deprave me.

you made one revision/ a circumstantial indecision/ acting on the very actions/ that you once considered main attractions/ now they're the reason for your disposition/ despising your own exposition/ there is no reason/ there is no reason for your discontent/ there are no faults/ no faults to repent/ there are no means/ no means to resent

misplaced and out of shape/ out of touch and laid to waste/ by the very souls/ you once controlled/ it's funny how we all create/ a different time, a different place/ while the future holds its own toll/ the road ahead is misconstrued/ you can travel through/ but only for a price/ forget the course you thought you knew/ that was my best advice/ the advice you threw/ there is no vice/ to subdue you

Coffin Nail

Use me like a cigarette.

Let my chemicals affect you.

Inhale my toxins as you burn me down.

Disregard the open threats.

Embrace my gentle decadence.

There lies no caution where cares cannot be found.

One final puff
Then you can snuff me
In the ground.

The Alex Show - Episode 60

There are certain things you can never forget no matter how hard you try. In fact, trying to forget something only makes it more probable to remember. The short term memory span dissipates after twenty seconds. Once you fixate on something for more than twenty seconds, you are set to remember it - at least for a considerable amount of time.
Time.
They say it heals all wounds.
Time does not heal paralysis. Time does not heal death. And worse, time does not heal a broken heart.
It's funny how they call it a broken heart when so often the heart was something already broken, and in some cases nonexistent. You cannot break something that's already been broken. Sure, you can sunder the pieces till they are an innumerable amount of shattered shards, but whether there are a billion pieces or only two, they will never be one again.
That's why true lovers know that heartbreak does not reside in the heart. It's a twinge in the pith of your stomach. It twists and turns like gears in a clock until the constant motin erodes the very gears keeping it moving, and much like time - and all the good it does in healing wounds - it stops. Numbness ensues. It is only in times like these that you truly appreciate the twinge. You miss it sincerely, because at least when you felt pain you felt something.
There are certain things you should never forget no matter how hard you wish to try. You can ignore your thoughts. You can ignore your heart. Do not ignore your stomach.
Or else you will starve to death.
