Insta-Poetry 4

please, tell me you love it
I know it from the fringes
there's a dirty secret
behind your rusty hinges
couldn't say the incantation
somehow still got hexed
in the shadow of my ego
I'm absolutely wrecked
 

Unrequited love
I'm dying from this
Couldn't avoid it
Death by a kiss
I'm not unstable
Just unimportant
I lost what I loved
But, I lived in the moment

 

don't see me
I don't see you
lenses that you
view me through
identity doesn't
belong to you
in the way
you thought you knew
