Resurrected
Inspired By Poppy's "Fraying"
*
destructions the construction
to this new me I'm conducting
all the music I've rewritten
to expose the girl you've smitten
threads like fuses to the landmines
you left hidden from my blind eyes
now unraveling before me
lost and discarded, your loves debris
I'm out of order, out of sorts
I'm out of time, left me a corpse
cause there is no cure for your disease
leaving your victims, nearly deceased
breathing and gasping, begging release
but you give chaos, offering peace
the darkness follows in your shadows
keeping tabs on wherever you go
a path of broken, left in your wake
trusting your smile, a fatal mistake
your ray of light, begs for surrender
but you're the fight, the "soul" contender
I may be dismayed, confused and frayed
but I've learned my lesson, I'll be okay
save you final words for another day
I've dug my way out of your grave

I'm imagining Uma Thurman punching her way out in "Kill Bill". Well-wrought!
Gosh that last line hit me so hard. Freaking powerful poem!
