Let me Down Gently

Afraid to fall

i keep swimming through my thoughts, through my mind

becoming lost in a mess of souls and eyes undefined

and i dont want to cave into the words lingering in the air

but the skin on my back is caught on a snare and attempting

to repair itself around the damage of our love affair being 

all the while unaware  of the wear and tear degrading

and nawing away at every lie you forswear burning a

hole of fire and ice into the core of the heart and

everyone stops and stares at the work of art you've created

with your bated strings of false hopes and dreams hooking

into the raw flesh of two lips with escaping screams.

and its all i can bare to not fall to the ground in torment

and not vomit from the scent of blood and tears and

discontent and your grip tightens to an unbearable extent

as i fall from your arms crashing into cement and it was

entirely your intent to not prevent the ascent and you

wont repent for what i underwent. as now i am bent

into a tangled mess of temptation and deliberation

as the detoxication of my misinterpretation returns

me to my normal characterization and at last liberation.

so never look at me again with that look of regret

im finished with your all or nothing games of roulette

find your own way to dig out of your demoralizing debt.

Ignore my lack of punctuation !

thank you :)

I really like the block structure. It adds to the intensity of the continuous text and the beautifully described feelings of hurt, betrayal, anger, and revenge. Well done!
