I WOKE UP BEFORE I KILLED YOU

A century attached to me-
My knuckles tied in knots with yours-
Straddling the silver lining-
Each new day the first new day-
Laughing at the past of teaser trailers,
but never getting the chance to see the full movie-
We are no longer 'prototype' baby-
Tracing shadows of memory murals-
We are the trend of iris blend-
Counting pennies with smiles-
It was beyond my comprehension-
You asked if that silver lining was actually chrome spray paint?-
Each new day was like yesterday-
I walked in on your conscious remembering who I wasn't-
I eavesdropped in on a dream of former lovers-
Creating shadows for excuses to unknot.
....and so we did...
You knew what to do-
Experienced in hurt from being hurt-
Anxious to admire from the other side-
I did love you-
I am just so fucking pissed,
that I woke up before I killed you-
