Backspace, I'm a mistake. Kiss me quick because I'm sinking fast. A combination of wrongs and maybes and once-upon-a-nevers, I'm a contradiction of terms you never want to read. Run now and far, for I'm not worth the gum on the bottom of your shoe. I'm an ambiguity. A nothing. A lie. I'm no better than those who claim to love you. Treading water, I can't stay afloat. Undertows suck me in. Let me fall baby, let me fall.

Flying, we were angels, but I've cut my wings. Black and red and blood, blood, blood. Whirlwinds and waves break over me with ridiculous un-passion, glass ornaments against hard floors have nothing on me. Burn away, I can't feel the flame. Sweetie, I'm a freak and I can't help but let people stare. Bite me: teeth, skin and pain. There are all these building blocks, so knock me over. I'm an alarming dichotomy.

I'm all wrong sugar. Angles, corners, natural sharpness. Stab me for nothing comes out. Buckets, I'm emptier. Clasp my hand one last time, feel the shade of death, kiss cold lips again. Corpse doesn't mean coffin, death doesn't mean I'm refusing to stay. Water and salt marks worse than pens. I'm a broken doll, forgotten leftovers. Kill me quickly, it's wrong to keep the vultures waiting. Pick, pick at my soul. Wave goodbye, this is an awful conclusion.
