Cyclical

why must this be
always with me
Silver turtles
filled with glee
sharing information
only with me
Midnight rain
starts again
flashes strike
thunder remains

to shake my bones awake

Midnight rain
turns to day
sparkling clear
droplets here

to keep my brain there

Midnight rain
starts again
lights flash
bedazzled night

come to take us to light
I know in my head
our most terrible fate
you will be filled with hate
and a broken bond
will never mend
ever again
if you listen closely

you can hear the screaming

of the broken and lonely

dig yourself a hole

where the sun doesn’t shine

and the light never shows

dig deeper and deeper still

submerge yourself in sorrow

and let the tears spill

let yourself die

alone in the cold

far away from home

shh, shh darlin’

go to sleep now

it will all be over soon
I really ****** it up this time
there's nothing much
I can really say
except that I'm truly sorry
and I wish for you to stay
healthy and sane
nothing to gain

playful and fun
but actually shunned

what to do
what to do
when you don't have a clue

                         ~
the light at the end of the tunnel
is far away past the struggle

and I don't know if I have enough left
to take the journey and make it to the end
