Tu es belle, they say.
Wake up one day and walk away,
Done with all the weighing and thinking
'To love or lie? or leave?'
Here,
Head turned into a glorified waste,
Senses as useful as fused light bulbs,
The speech-bubbles over my head
rubbed off with a cheap eraser.
Eyes, the rolling eyes of a, once-friendly, doll.
Dreams are a measure of time.
Nightmares, time itself.
Undo the future for me,
for I seem to be undone by time.
Wake up one day and walk away.
Every blink, every sigh crushed under your steps.
If the choices are
to lie or to leave...
Pray, leave me now and
At least leave me beautiful.
