Locked

By Sui Qu:

 

Locked to your beating heart,

I am forever destined to be with you,

Never am I able to step away and part.

My heart and your heart, together they sew.

 

And form a unified beating mutation,

Aghast by the grotesque deviation,

Searching desperately for that thin line,

And unweave it to depart my confine.

 

Where is that key?

The key to unlock me from you.

The key to cut out my love of you.

Searching desperately for that key.

 

Your cold hand creeps my skin,

Your anguishing breath sinks my already sullen heart.

Avoiding your horrendous, ghastly grin.

I cannot stay locked to you, for I must depart.

 

Locked.
