Lightning Fix

It hurts…

Oh, God, it hurts,

This agonizing, excruciating

Burning.

The voices…

They haunt me,

Racing through my mind

As the fire burns the

Stitches holding me

Together.

I seek him out,

Deep in the darkness

Of this dead city,

His white face glowing

With an ironic glee.

It's the other glow

That I'm seeking.

The electric blue,

Like liquid lightning,

To save me from my

Pain and misery.

My salvation,

In the form of sparks

Shooting through my veins

As I collapse, satiated.
