Tension

Starburst lightning

Sets the sky ablaze,
Steady prayers for your guise

Never looked quite right,
Interlude,

Or deception?
Can you never hold back that smile

That offends my intelligence?
I can taste the tension
Hanging in the air,

It loops and curls

And makes it hard to breathe,
I'm sorry, the damage is done
And I can't be fine with it,
But when have I ever been?
I decline to revise,
I can't lie,

But rather bask in my disaster.
