Climb the highest mountain, punch the face of god

Five. Ten. Fifteen. Twenty.

My heart is with you,
You shivered your soul away
And left behind a flaccid corpse.

We wouldn't bury you,
But burn you instead and let
The wind have your ashes.

An itch on the inside,
I cannot scratch it without
Silver razorblades.

And once I've slit it all away,
I know that I can give you back
The heart you never took.
