Strangled

When all we ever were alike to was a cage and a bird . . .

Hollowed by you do I walk with shame

amidst the population of this heaven so bright

without a scapegoat save for myself to blame

for engaging love with a parasite

so misunderstood were both our worlds

struggling inside a corpse unwilling to be saved

when all it ever was was a tortured young girl

imprisoned within a sorrowed man's ribcage

This is sick. Dark and moody with a touch of deep intimacy. One of my favorites from you. Really nice, Tai!

I originally planned a ten stanza poem for this concept; and in fact I did do so, but hated it and scrapped it. Then rewrote it into two stanzas. Had you read that version, I'm sure you would have loved it. Just saying, sorry. Thanks.
