Description
It's a consumption
that spreads over time,
immaculate in its ability
to cover every inch,
the minute precision
of internal destruction
kept alive by
our tendency to
feel.

It's a kind of tug and pull
at the nerves,
until each one seems to
be trailing loose
below the surface
and all you can do
is squirm in discomfort
while the flames
of guilt
lick up and down
your sides.

It's a burning thirst
emanating from within,
where lies the need
to be free of this furnace,
this emotional crematorium
never satiated
by reckless
anaesthetic.
