The Grappe - Acedia's Plate

That part of me -- Went down with you -- Lost and never found again -- A truth I wished -- You could have known -- Weight upon my shoulders rolled -- A noose you tied -- Around my neck -- That slid right through -- And left me unchecked -- A blanket pulled -- Tight 'round my eyes -- It burns -- And rips -- Through me -- Like a grape -- I soured -- Now bent out of shape -- You go in and out -- Of open doors -- While I just sit -- And isolate -- I am Anxieties -- Dinner plate -- Every lie exacerbates -- A crackled crust -- Beneath the mask -- You never could -- Reciprocate -- Just more lies -- I lie in wait -- For me to break -- And shatter -- Put me back -- Together -- You think I matter? But truth is you're not -- Done -- I'm an open house -- To a stranger -- I have never known -- Occupants -- Infinity -- You danced with so many -- I come home -- Worked and tired -- You have lived your life -- With plenty -- I move to soak up -- Some affection -- But it seems -- You're all out -- I stumble on -- The evidence -- You scream -- You shout -- I'm out.
