The Reckoning

Anonymous

The feelings I had for you
Ate me from the inside out
A flesh eating virus
Nothing could contain
Consumed everything
Creeping destruction
Storms in a burning mind
Tormented hurricane dreams
A flickering flame
A moth’s burnt wings
I’ve seen the last of you
You retreat into the darkness
Of a thousand borrowed memories
The answers
I no longer care to know
