Singularity
I should have killed you when I had the chance.
When I had more control and you and I
Were mere acquaintances,
Meeting only every now and again,
In the company of good friends who knew you well
(Perhaps better than even I will know you now)
Sharing drinks and wasting time.I should have killed you when I had the chance.
Back when I cringed the moment you touched my lips
When the thought of you was enough to send me reeling
When I was drowned in your presence and wanted nothing of it.I should have killed you when I had the chance.
But instead I chose to kill myself
By drinking in your misted lust,
And allowing myself to lose control
One wish at a time.I should have killed you when I had the chance.
Before things got this bad.
And now I shake at the thought of your absence.
Die from knowing that you exist
But solely apart from me.I should have killed you when I had the chance.
But I know it’s not too late.
My heavy breathing tells me, one way or another.
And the time I used to spend with you
Is now nothing but time left to kill.
