My skin threatens to peel away from my eyes,
My fingernails have found solace elsewhere,
In bouts of seizes and convoluted sighs,
Acid from my lips melts away my matted hair,
Twitches trying to take tolls of my time,
Forge the iron fist of regret,
I see blood in my dirty sink and on my thigh,
My name is Delude and Forget,
Take away my life,
And take away my pain,
One cannot live without the other,
As puddles do not exist without rain,
