I didn’t know then that your heart would break mine, and that i’d be running for something, i couldn’t find. I didn’t know then how nice your face shone in the light, or in my life, all the things youd define. I didn’t understand how keen you were to grow, like weeds in a garden, you … More burn
I put these words in pretty tones, and voice my opinions in poetic silhouettes, because I’m so fucking scared of what this really means.
your pupils like dimes. dark and cold. your heart like mine. weak and old. your skin it shines. porcelain gray. and when its time to go, you never stay.
on the merry-go-round its crazy how many kids i know have holes in their heads and hearts gushing with love. feeling like wastelands, erupting with kindness. their heads filled with voices, and theres too many of us to count. pressure is up, and the kids fall down.
my daddy is god and he cant save me. my mistakes are too long, the sins MAKE me.
youre scared? for what? i should be scared! you pin down my wrists and spill out your shaking lungs on me. you say, but hey its not me who has to go to therapy. you act like you understand. you see the terror in my eyes, and you apologize. because no! you dont want to … More pretty little head
all the kids running to catch them. his mom she screams, why are we like this? they listen and laugh, and get caught on the scene, but dont realize, its a work of gravity. those closest to the floor, will always go back. even if we try to fix it, “just cause he’s black”.
chocolate stained my neck like your lips used to. my guitar split my wrists because the glue didn’t work. im always trying to ask God to help me. and you always flash before my face. and we’re living for never. always sticking our guts in whatever. they don’t care that my knees are scraped, they’re … More chocolate
you. are. everything. i believed in god again when i saw the light streak on your face. i saw your golden skin like hazelnuts, and your blue eyes sparkle under the sun. i heard your voice for the first time. ive never felt so alive. i hated you for not noting me. but i couldnt … More you.
but youre wrong. i never did that. listen to me, i know. how could you. you were never around. i love him too much you know. too much, its breaking your braces. its making you pool, tears over faces. and youre weak, and it hurts, but its NOT REAL
