We are cursed
Darkened door
Hastened heartbeat
Stakes seem so high
In the moment
Come to terms
With your efforts
Treading water
Flexing muscle

Forsaken
Toxic urge
Declarations
Haze of ego
Sit in your shame
A stench you can't wash out
In false accounts
Of your early actions
You're not affected, you're just mechanical
Try proving me wrong
I'll leave the door open
And the light on

Avert your gaze
You paint the truth
In third-party blood

Give yourself to earth
Tethered by association
You weren't invited
Borne of a parasite
Wrapped in your sweet disguise
I warned you

Carry objects
Not memories
Laughter airy as your conviction
Smile brittle as your interest

Pointless social exercises will not dictate what transpires
I will end you
