Fallout of Love




It's an addiction
To hate myself at every core
 After the fallout of it all.

Like a sinking,
  The desert is desperate
As a slow but omnipotent notion of inevitable dark death-
 The one that smells of rotting flesh
  And soul's long gone from this Earth.

I stop myself from leaning over the edge
 But feel the force like a magnetic gravity pulling me past the Ground's surface.

Every thing I have ever wanted

Had been ripped from me,
 Time and again.

I rest now
  On the faint teeter
Of being loved by a man, who's emotions are chained by ghosts

While my dreams continue to fade into the distancing background
And my breath slips from me

As I let go.

I never had any business loving in this world.

Nobody told me that,
But I tried anyway.
