J�ai I�habitude De J�aime Bien.

A Chapter by Babylon

This beast snarled, the ground that kept it chained slowly giving way and wanting to tear anything apart that appeared out of the blind spots on the other side. I'll travel through this city of darkness with creatures that lurk at every corner, holding my head up but acknowledging that my heart was free for them to enter.
Monster, how should I feel? You tell me not to worry; to sit tight and you'll take care of the rest but my trust in you is diminutive. You say it's simply just a test. This bulwark you've provided is slowly rusting, melting away with the heat of hatred. As I sit here in silence with the lights dimmed and his t-shirt in my hand, I can feel my stomach twist of emotions I thought would never recompense. You lied about my heart being frozen over but your standing argument is that I opened the door and let him in when he just drove around with his plastic smile. My head is down and my mind swirls with insults and disgust for being so foolish. My fingers run through my hair and I shake my head as I wished I never met you.
I'll stand in front of you and fake a smile so you can't see how much this really hurts me underneath. How could you let me down so easily? Hanging me by a string and toying with me then putting me on a shelf to be forgotten except to occasionally whisper in my ear, "You wish you still had this." to watch my eyes get wide and suck in a breath, wincing as you poured the salt into old wounds. Even though you had me fooled, I thought you were the best.
When you left, I decided to escape from this hell hole I used to like call home. I left with more than what I was here to begin with but you wouldn't understand that I am just a human who fell into a trap. I had to leave before all the wires in my head snapped. I won't leave a note and all of your belongings have been mailed. My legs are tired from chasing you and when you come back, it won't make any difference except for another one of your experiments failed.

About
People say I am a contradiction in itself; that I am an oxymoron that just keeps providing surprises. A puzzle missing pieces that you'll never find. I am a beast at bay, sitting at the end of the tab.. more..
