Once an addict always an addict
Addicted to the pain
Tearing my skin
Watch me deflect emotions
Ignore my feelings
Neglect those I love
Burn my soul on the stove
Where is that pin
Watch me stab it in
Screaming, crying, laughing
Smiling and dying

I'm
learning
to
love
the
sound of my feet
walking away
from
things
not
meant for me
yes
love
is
the
answer
love
will
conquer everything
despite
the
anger and pain
love
will
always
be
the
End game

a man awaits for the next train. the air is dry and the night is old.
he sits on a bench, sighs and folds his hands under his jacket.
the sound of station is loud, the low buzz of voices making a familiar racket.
he is tired, his hands feel weary and his fingers are cold.
there is a woman just sitting across from him. she took off her plaid red scarf and began to fold it.
her skin was as frail as his. her old hair as white as snow and under the yellow lights her eyes were warmly lit.
he smiled, though she did not see him. he wasn't one to make a move so bold.
he closed his eyes as it began to spit, letting the light rain that was falling hit.
he decided not to disturb, she looked ever so peaceful wrapped in her winter knit.
a the man gazed upon his wife, watching the white snow collect on her parasol.
she looked over so beautiful under the headlights of the train, so warmly lit.
came to me when i was thinking of a friend kinda edgy
