 Dec 2014 Metanoia
Emma M Dunlop
Surrounded by senseless rambling,
pathetic routine used to disguise shambolic life.

Welcome to shaking hands
and a pack a day chased by a bottle of white ***,
an unspoken pathos.

Benson hedges,
half baked moonlight.

Wincing every ****** word,
wondering what you'd done to deserve this.

My heart had your name
written on it so clearly
but your heart
only had a small smudge
where my name should have been.

do you ever crave someone's presence?

It's beyond me why you'd run past open arms into the ones that dropped you in the first place,
And why you'd find home in a place that tore yours up from the group like a natural disaster.

Nature has a way of making things work,
Ever wonder why that's why you two don't?

And it's a **** disaster to hold your frame like a scared child-
Shaking and sobbing because things didn't go your way.

Please just go your own way,
You're the child who outgrew home and the overcoat she gave you.

Maybe if you let her go,
You'd stop feeling so heavy and fearful of chill.

Maybe if you took your coat off,
You'd feel the sunshine in ways not even her softest touch could rival.

Don't walk back into the eye of the storm.
Walk your way back home,

Where the arms aren't heavy
And the arms don't make you feel so alone.

I know something's changed
because when I look into my eyes
They're finally clear

saucer eyes
desperate tries
under eyelash spies
the melody flies
my skin fries
why?
