you

robin jayne

why you

you never seem to leave my mind do you

lighting my neurons on fire

wreaking havoc in my brain cells

 

who do you think you are

you were supposed to be gone

but you beat the walls of my skull

like a child beats a drum

my head is much too sore

 

you’re cancerous

you steal my good memories

and replace them with ones of you

you collect like the dust on my shelves

 

i wish you would go away

if i think about you for one more second

my mouth will leak with all the words

i wish i got to say to you

and we both know that would not be good

    Some just never leave you, even the amputation still leave the living scars.
    Short of exorcism, it's all containment.
