Annihilate

hide and seek

you look for me in the backyard

maybe i'm a silhouette, no meat

pulling teeth

maybe i'm storing them ten centimeters under ground

turning my mouth into an ugly wound

you look for me in their eyes

maybe i'm being the shadow under their lids

and using their voice to sing

they keep you underwater, you tremble

and even the waves resemble

you look for me under the earth

maybe i'm collecting bones

and panicking – there's no heart

 no heart, no heart, no heart

maybe i never had one to start with

while you search the air

i'll be gone to the sea

when you memory becomes thin

i'll come back to my home

i'll crawl back to your skin 

a/n: i'm going to start a new collection of poems, probably soon. i hope you'll check out my new work when i publish it. it won't be as dark as this one, i swear.  i'm not sure, but i'll probably keep publishing here too. thank you for reading, voting and commenting. you're the best!
