Part 1
Tension as thick as blood squeeze their hearts,
and suddenly
confessions are ringing in the air.

A bullet per word.
A grenade per sentence!
The assaults don't stop coming...

they are not trying to hurt each other,
it 
is just
happening.

Maybe it is Phobia.

Could be,
maybe,
there is a possibility.

Acid in his eyes.
Drowning under water!
Aging is sure to happen...

Purely
Phobia.

Cracking her whip-like tongues
to see who confesses first.

Part 2

Just slipped on the edge

They spilled secrets
It's all out now

Their phobias

Body manipulation
Fuel the match
Become a flickering flame
That they used to be

Edge each other impossibly
Stride across the stage
Pluck strings, sing, dance, scream
Their edge has started a new beginning

No more phobia.
