backfire

Time,
I've carried you for too long, deforming the shape of my mind
like the bending rivers carving mountainsides,

and you, my love, your eyes mutate revolting blood cells
driven through your pretty hands
guiding them a path beneath your feet.

Strange,
it's strange to think I’m in forgiving control
Yet, I can’t convince myself to deprive you from me.

Should I worry about you missing me?
calling me back from the road of perdition
the finale part I’ll never see you do.

Love,
it’s a carousel throwing off mighty men,
once licentiousness becomes mundane,
the cowboys, the junkies & the meek purging them bucked wild,
you scout for fresh rides.

Hurt,
hurt has its way of okaying myself to be disengaged,
introverted when you slip the plot.

I've misread the glow of your heart in the dark.
a body double mutation,
it backfires guessing who you are.

Damn,
at the dawn of my creation,
I was a sensation at your fingertips,
now a losing soul drifting out of orbit
playing musical chairs games with dead planets

Backfire
I cringe from what I know is coming when it backfires,
guessing who you are to finalize my plan for revenge.

The missing piece?
The missing piece?
If only I had planned my plan to backfire
I would’ve had you,

but it backfires with futile lessons
hurting me more than you could feel.
