the sour in my heart
and bitter in my mouth
increase in intensity
and the darkness around me
becomes empty
when i reach out
the cold is deathly
and damp
the magic inside
the spark of love
the spark of romance
the spark of life
has been snuffed out
can you smell the smoke?
how rank and rancid
the smell of a sour heart
