an aching pit of anger burns in my soul
when I think of you
listening to the lines of a song you once sang
and I remember being happy with you
the betrayer
you’re the only one who still
holds such a heated place in my core
the coward long since ejected and
the liar’s words unheard thanks to willfully deaf ears
but you have always been special
the anomaly
I want to freeze you out
until the frostbite blackens bits of your heart
into rotten nothingness
I want you in agony
your sins
liquid nitrogen on unprotected skin
my fury is a deadly beast
vicious and starving for a kill
but all I really want most days is to turn on the radio
and forget to hear your voice
when the song starts to play
our song [poem]
