Unless you leave

in poetry •  8 years ago 

you don't see, it, do you?
the pain that has once pursued you
the entire idea that keeps you pacing
what happens when that gear gets you
racing. heart beats dont matter
when you can't catch your breath.
you say and say it won't dare last.

you lose yourself, in what once passed.
unless you leave, itll catch you fast.

you've dulled the pain, alas..alas.

a bottle of whiskey, a hot and cold bath.
you've figured it out, just once again.

but when the sun comes,
youll run again.

because there's no facing
your horrid twin; the person
inside
deep
deep
within.
