So yeah, i wrote this right after i got in a six hour fight with my girlfriend. I was very angry adn depressed, so...


A tear forms, a growing tumor in the corner of his eye. The cancerous seed reaches adulthood and plunges, gaining speed on its journey down the man’s face. Upon reaching his abrasive chin, the orb collides with a crimson river, losing its identity to the great exodus of blood. The man’s cheeks, an inkblot of bruises, sprinkled with tiny misplaced dots from the ever flowing stream whose mouth lay near his temple. It is a bad cut, rough and with little white cliffs jutting out from under the skin. He clenches his teeth, an ivory gateway into his sordid insides, in preparation for the next blow. The man again raises the hammer, empty and thoughtless, with his quivering fist. Time no longer exists and reality is drowned in white as the instrument does its job, this time creating a decent sized hole next to his right eye. Blood bursts forth from this crater like lava from a seething volcano, violent and chaotic. A scream permeates the lonely room, and then a sigh. The man falls, his hands hitting the floor. He grips the rug frantically, like a terrified infant. The man shrieks as his eyes search madly for a mother, someone to save him, someone’s arms to hold him. Tears flow from his eyes, indiscernible within the growing red ocean. Terror envelopes him as loneliness takes hold of his heart and ceases its beat.
