Two eyes, separated by bone
Minding their own sockets
I wish that I could cut them out
And hide them in my pockets
Two ears a full scull apart
Staying hidden from each other
I want to crush them shut
With no more sound to discover
One stomach churning acid
Burning underneath my skin
I'll pull it from my throat
Purge the pain from within
One brain spreading chaos
Harboring thoughts of fear and dread
I'll poison it under my scull
Until it swells through my head
One heart beating under my chest
The only organ that is true
But if I can stop its beating
Then the others will die too

The one who keeps me sane
When all else fails
Rip out my heart
Feed it to the

as mourners empty eyes.
hummm. feeling nothing.
heavy empty
