Madness

I’ve got red wine and black coffee
Stained on my insides
Mascara drips from my fingertips
I spoke my million words
I strangled the last breath of life
Directly from the insides
Now?
I sit
Alone
I lie
Alone
I am
Alone
My world revolves around
An empty shell
A want
A need
Revealed
Yet unrewarded
No begging or pleading or matter of reason
Will do the trick
The numbness I once recognized
Has subsided
I’m burning
Bended
Broken
Betrayed
All the while
Hanging on to an illusion
For what?
Pride?
Penetration?
Pain
If ever in doubt
Grab a hold
The pain will remind you
You
Are
Not
Anything more than
Human
