The Change Came Suddenly

Can I spread frustration

Without speaking

Without parting my lips

Except to breath?

I let my actions speak for me

Because my words collided with yours

It created tension and frustration

So I left

I didn't turn around to see

How troubled you were that night

I promise that it paled in comparison

To the anguish each step brought me

As I walked away

My heart pumps your rhapsody

I still lick my lips

To the thought of you

So now I'm stuck here

In the purgatory of longing

For that one kiss goodbye

I try to empty myself

Of all desire that I crave for you

But the attempt only brings me to my knees

I succumb to you idol

This subconscious social vampire

Who haunts every thought

I chock on the will to demand patience

Only to find myself swallowing blood
