Ambition Kills
Aya Malki
Sometimes we want something so bad
we ruin it
we do our absolute best to get it
we lose all sense of direction
we lose all possibility
soon
you’re too deep to swim back
you’re in quicksand
every step
every move
takes you deeper
and deeper
drowning what’s left of your thoughts
then it hits you at the very last moment
before all the sanity is drained
not all murder is intention
you were better off without it after all
