Self Whisperings, Too

I can't erase the memories
but can change the mood of their hold.
I can't wipe the slate clean
but can smudge enough to mask
the words always misunderstood
and follow the chalk dust into oblivion.

There, it won't matter who or what or why
and I will wear the loneliness as a charm
knowing that what matters is only
in the mind becoming magnified
only when in your presence.

Life is an obsession,
living it an addiction...
sometimes a poison, very hard to swallow.
