catatonic screams

by Nicole M. - Gemini

Contrite noise falls into
  an indifferent bedroom
again
  I am clutching the edge
of another bed
Thoughts creep past
     movie titles
My hate is
  refreshed
recollecting your
   hand on my shoulder
Mutating everything
   and existence is wrong
You gently
   stole
my mentality
  as you held
 my hand
     mindlessly
I screamed
    in catatonic whispers
for lost reasons
   I knew rage
silently
   for
twenty-three minutes
of eternity
    I condemned
what you stood for
  inside hairline fractures
My stomach ate itself
   inside out
as I forgot
  that I could hold
a pulse
  As you robbed me
through
   parasitic helplessness
I despised the subtle demands
beating platonic 
    linens
 Inconvienent etches
   hold unglorified
weighted moments
and I know
   I am not
a 
  serendipidous victim
A settled mind
   understands
no
tortured credentials
 resides in 
this story
  as a wise man said
let insignificant ambiguity
depict
  insecure aggrevations
Following the theory
   words don't mean a thing
I'll let these lines drain
   emptying
into
  self-contained
      compassion
Drop hollow marks
   and
bury them
in
   sterilized
daily
   ordinary
  <s>tixs
ticks</s/end>
   <s>tiks</s/end>
  tics
