South Side Of Love

Bullet Riddled



She feigned lovesicness,

the disease that sucks you in

swallows you whole,

Makes you feel

through walls

that once stood steel.



Her caravans were relentless

taking me places where only dreams

can travel in sips of liquid ardor,

Where life unravels

at the mere mention of rivers deep,

In the middle of drown

where hearts have fallen

wayside,

In ringing shots of drive-by lovers.



There are no drugs to save me

no miracle cure insight

without the future being the past

to see what destroyed me,

The insanity

of believing in you.
