umbilical cord

I know you love me, and it's all love
But I had to rip this umbilical cord
it got around my neck
I was about to choke

One of the circumstances that make you be who you are,
or is it rather
the circumstances were because of who I am?

I know you love me, can't say I don't
but it intoxicates, bye dear, I had to wave
In our distance, we became close
we look so nice in our worlds...
my world feels like it can breathe on its own
only intersecting in times odd
I love you, but we have to coexist
never to share our cores

Yet your umbilical cord
will buy me the freedom I need,
not want.
Your umbilical cord, will serve a purpose

Eviscerating eyes, II

"Your eviscerating, loving stare"...

and I can feel something tear -

it's my certainty, it's my reality,

(the very things I see

they clash with thee!)

 

You are good, but you are a threat!

You cut me - and you want to help

My eyeballs possessed by your mental state!

It's a outside voice inside my head

For years, for years - trying to break free

I had your ugly eyes fixed over mine!

I always knew they weren't right

but for a second they got attached -

 

The eyes of the world - so unknown

your eyes tend to interpret what they don't know

Their eyes - always hurt a lot

because they're yours, and they also rot!

Rot my heart and my thoughts

 

But you are good, you are there too

how can love make you feel so low?

Jorge

now we are there

Jorge

how hungry I was then!

 

Your sweet veiny arms

those wandering brown eyes

those brains, I wanted to drown

in them

your depth, that bloody depth!

You made me laugh through pain

You sucked me in because

I wanted to be you, not yours

 

And now, in fact, I am not yours at all

because I am a woman of my own

You were beautiful, though.

I always fell for beauty, you know
