My bones feel like they are slowly rotting
I gaze at the stars as I slowly waste away
Nobody seems to know that I'm dying
Will the sickness try to steal me today?
Locked in a room with my little secret
Turn off the light and bask in bitterness
Think of all the lies I've told to keep it
All this emptiness seems to be boundless
Close my eyes as the pain washes through me
Can't let anybody figure this out
This thing destroying me no one can see
I'll glue on a smile and scrape off the pout
My sickness is my only companion
Failure
Failure
Failure
Is the word etched by tears on my pillow case
Is what nothing can seem to erase
When everyday I'm reminded
You failed
You failed
You failed
Here are your consequences
Take them and smile so there aren't any more
Pretend it's ok so you don't lose anything else
It doesn't make sense. Everything was fine before
What did I do?
How can I undo it?
I fear my thoughts
I fear my words
They are failures like me
Reconstruct my walls
Slowly
Maybe then I won't fail anybody.
I love you
And I love chocolate
If you drowned in chocolate
I probably would pull you out
Then eat the chocolate
You're like a marshmallow
But you're not pasty white and gushy
Congratulations
IT'S A GIRL!!
We think.
I will buy you anything
From dollar tree
Because you're worth it
Twinkle twinkle little star
Harry has a lighting scar
If you were in a wheelchair
I would push you around
And steal it and push myself around
Mostly the last one
But remember...
I love you. Kinda.
Concrete walls
Grotesque murals of burgundy
Tales of madness and hysteria
Etched by infuriated fingers
Ferocious fingers tearing away at their encumbrance
itching for revenge
cracked and crusty fingernails
caked with crimson
plunge into her arms as she shrieks
the walls suffocate sound
none hearken to her demented strain
none regard the yellowed stalagmite teeth that jut and hang from black gums
that gnaw furiously at her shackles
nobody sees her eyes
scorching and searing with hatred and hellfire
but are equally empty and hollow
she is truly, utterly
alone
her muffles screeches quicken my heartbeat
it is i that must keep her contained
concea
In your arms
Seeing your shining smile
I feel your warmth even as we part
Always safe in your sweet embrace
Inside my heart
You have a special place
You're a part of me
You have an influence none can erase
No blood or official connection
Tied by friendship and affection
My soul smiles because i know
As long as I love you
And you love me
We're our own kind of family.
