i'm on the ground
already dead
but decay won't come easy
lightening strikes hard
rapes the sky
bleeds the stars
i tried to be brave once
but it made my mother resent me
And she turned her back towards me,
fled the country
but i only wanted love
i only wanted what wasn't there
the lacking bit
of my youth
the strange sense of longing
that only the dark could enhance
wrapped in my bedding
struggling to find sleep
in the cold bath tub,
i would ask god why.
never an answer.
only a sunrise,
only another day
to fill with lies.
