Venting The Less You Know, The Sounder You Sleep (poem)

[iminsweatertown]

I don't want to go there but it's where my imagination thrives
Beyond the event horizon of a timeless sky

I'm flesh and bone, the world is new
What an empty vessel is for me
Can be a breath of power for you
Sensations crumbling, piercing, gutting
I could sink into the abyss
Let the layers unfold
Give up my free will
I don't want to be

Confined within this negative space
A hollow cage built to break
A vacuum devoid of meaning
An inevitable calamity of dying stars
Celestial matter scattered through time
Destined to find each other

Reborn from stardust
My heart glowing through a battered ribcage
The light peeking through the cracks whisper
An amalgamation of harmony
Soundwaves crashing into each other
Burning white into my retinas
Bleeding into my soul
Rewriting my thoughts into oblivion
Blind my perception with your image of perfection
And I will be anything you want me to be

Shaped me into a statue of perseverance
Carved out the edges, precisely predicted
Melted a mask into my skin, molded my features
Lifted my chin higher than my eyes
Creation of your mind implemented into mine
