You Can Only Be so Careful

I’m so sorry it came to this.
Battered, bloodied voiceless choking on this
Crumpled piece of paper this is the shit- That keeps me up nights and knocks me
unconscious
I close my eyes
Rape and murder is all I see
And how long did we sleep with that gun in our backs?
This bed should be a place of warmth and yet I’ve never Felt such a chill
But I swear to you that we can get through this together
It kills me
Every time you blame yourself
While they run away and hide themselves
Fold the paper hearts
Touching like skin
And if it all came down to it
I’d be with you until the bloody end
There will be no more monsters
Headless, the worms
Will have our revenge
(murder isn’t always wrong)
And I’ll take your secret to the grave
Its all forgiven
Sleep with this
Wake with this silent, still (stop)
It kills me
Every time you blame yourself
While they run away and hide themselves
Fold the paper hearts
Touching like skin
Consent, none. has the shaking stopped?
You look so different.
