toxicity

the ink of your pen has migrated quickly to your veins
staining your tears a literal blue and your blood deep black

it flows so easily through your body
delivering toxicity to every cell

and though the shock is always fun
you’re going to wither until the ink is all that’s left

just come and go
simply come and go
your brain is like your body

corrosion

eating you up

expression

tearing us down
