X/ ARCTIC SUMMER.

ARCTIC SUMMER.
sneak.

A crescendo of blushes on parchment skin.
The stench of my euphoric grin.
And you so bruised, so beautiful.
Senses raw and mine to cull.
Raised on hope and little more.
The hands of time reveal the score.
Fulfilment - Nil, Depression - Ten.
We're someone else's 'Now and then'
Dressed in rags, a lame excuse.
A fashioned smile born of abuse.
Acid laugh discharged on cue.
I gorge myself on feeling blue.
This sweet embrace and shy caress.
Every day I love you less.
Programmed to hate. Too cold to care.
Too low to fall from anywhere.
Too disconnected. Too far gone.
Heart beat thud. My human bomb.
Immune to life. Detect - Destroy.
The wasted limbs of 'Broken boy'
The empty head, the tasteless gaze.
Another chance to self erase.
Another wish, another lie.
Another staid and boring high.
Misrepresent normality.
Liquid low's spill over me.
Leave me breathless. Break me down.
You wear me out. I wear your frown.
It suits me well. I feel your pain.
I fall apart but take the strain.
Your vacant hell. My life on hold.
This summer sun just leaves me cold.
