Jaws.

Locked doors and tightened chains. As the stiffness in my throat grows. I've given you permission to take a bite out of my heart and you spit it out when you see my tears.

It can't happen anymore. The lust in your eyes reels me in but the acid from your mouth forces me back out.

Loud noises used to startle us, Now they're the only rain in the hurricane we've created.
