Ben Skross Mar 2014
i see you in colors that dont exist
purple blue gold
green orange yellow
dont do you justice
you could replace the northern lights
and be a hundred times as beautiful
the trees envy your freedom
youre an artists favorite medium
I see you in colors that dont exist
so many parts molded together to form you
I see you in colors that dont exist
and im jealous of the suns ability to touch your face everyday
Ben Skross Mar 2014
I wish i could lie in bed to smoke, and
pretend that all the bad feelings
are floating away with the grey cloud
evaporating into the air along with the other
things i shouldnt worry about
this is lame
Ben Skross Mar 2014
If i could
i would take that smile
and inject it directly
into my bloodstream

my parents warned me
about drugs in baggies
sold on the street

but never the ones
with teeth
and a heartbeat
Ben Skross Mar 2014
i wanted to stop loving you
so badly
that i cracked open my own heart
only to reveal it was a locket
still framed with pictures of you
on each side
Ben Skross Mar 2014
525, 600
minutes in a year.
You spent 372, 536
looking at me,
and 153, 064
looking at the lid
of your casket

— The End —
