Shatter Into You (Free verse) by AtomIcPromIse
Every time you touch me, I want to fall into a pile of dust, And blow away with one big gust, Your hands scorch me when they touch my skin, Soak it all down with a bottle of gin, Repressing all my hate, Ever since our first date! I know you’ll never see this, And I won’t tell- That when I’m around you, I feel like I’m in hell. You’re not so attractive, In a way you can’t see, I know you better than yourself, You’re not much better than me. I’m just a catastrophe, And you’re my tragedy, I can’t hold on, I can’t hold on… I can’t hold on to something I can’t feel, My heart is where it shouldn’t be, And my mind doesn’t matter, With every moment my sins will shatter, Shatter into you.

Up the ladder: plants grow from caskets
Down the ladder: darabuka
