As dark as the ink on these pages
As numb as frostbitten fingers
My heart just beat 3 times as fast
But still a darkness lingers

My head is busy, it wonders
Stomping all the time
A flash and I am back there
His eyes still covered with dimes

Cannot escape the horror
The circus of my life
Are you afraid of clowns, my dear?
Good - '*** this ones bites

I'm just trying
to cover my mistakes up.


He said "baby girl,
don't hide behind your makeup"

Did she save you...
Pick up your pieces and fit them back together oh, so perfectly?

Did she save you?
Or were you just too afraid to be alone?
Jade Welch Mar 2019
You do not deserve to be or to feel alone.

You deserve to be and to feel loved.

Please, never forget that.

Dead ends and nowhere to turn
Your heart it feels like home
These walls are broken down
Yet still I sleep alone

Everything sounds warm
And this sun feels oh, so green
Nothing ever makes sense
When ripped away from dreams

The temptress beckons you over
And soon you too shall run
And when I awake again
The night leaves me alone and numb

— The End —
