Image for the poem The Devil

The Devil's In The Ink

I got drunk
made a mistake
wrote to you
should have  
known better
 
indifference  
the worst kind  
of wound
i'll admit it
I've earned this
 
though the poison
doesn't go down
any easier
it burns a path
to my heart
 
fortunate it was
a quick kill
not a lingering death
of passion unfulfilled
 
i'll not be writing
of love that  
does not exist
anymore
 
I was foolish
also mean
speaking from
a hurt space
 
your writing cuts
so I cut back
regretting what I wrote
the devil's in the ink
once spilt it can't  
be taken back
