introvert, defeated.

Let's waste the year, my dear
and feel it slip
through the gaps in our memories.
Let us cherish the darkness of the night, my love
and how it hides, crouched
mutters curses under the collapsing sky.
Let us never sleep, my sweet
just let exhaustion tug at our lids,
pull us down into the quicksand
screaming and crying out into the peaceful marshlands.
Let's crush them, my friend,
crawling all over the city streets
we shall crush them all beneath our heels
and turn instead to the sparkling glass windows.
Let us live forever, my nothing
for these people have carved out my eyes
and cut your liver from your body
and we'll lie here, forgotten, forever.
