The Poems I Never Wrote

I dare you to give up
can't you feel the air?
as I fly by your ego 
you ate my despair,
It's caught between your teeth
your skin laced in grief,
relatable suffering;
gripping your mindless thoughts
don't you remember peace? 
Forgetful sins;
committed with greed 
dressed up in satin sheets,
look at your ruby red cheeks; 
we could chase the seas
I count the days;
to remember the chaos,
the chaos;
you brought to me 
don't remove it now,
or you'll choke on the memories.
