Natasha
Darkened kin
You failed her
You laid her a course of disillusion
You spared nobody but yourself
Her journey
is
now
with
ravens
A lifetime
of
irresolute awakenings
Feel the despondency in her step
Her vacuous stride
Her path,
pale
and
desolate
Behind her eyes
is where
the symptoms linger
Your dankness permeates her joy
Your stench festers beneath her skin
She can’t get the smell of you off her
It’s imbedded in her marrow
She can’t catch her breath
she suffocates
under the weight
of
your presence
You have stolen her envy;
thieved her future
Dressed her totality in rags
her essence
tattered and threadbare
Her spirit,
fettered
Clinging to you like an oaken limb
A misalign of the planets
A causality of natures design
An affair of extinction
Of mind,
body,
and
soul
You failed her
You laid her a course of disillusion
You spared nobody but yourself
Her journey
is
now
with
ravens
A lifetime
of
irresolute awakenings
Feel the despondency in her step
Her vacuous stride
Her path,
pale
and
desolate
Behind her eyes
is where
the symptoms linger
Your dankness permeates her joy
Your stench festers beneath her skin
She can’t get the smell of you off her
It’s imbedded in her marrow
She can’t catch her breath
she suffocates
under the weight
of
your presence
You have stolen her envy;
thieved her future
Dressed her totality in rags
her essence
tattered and threadbare
Her spirit,
fettered
Clinging to you like an oaken limb
A misalign of the planets
A causality of natures design
An affair of extinction
Of mind,
body,
and
soul
