Jamie wakes up
A gunshot from within
Eyelids crash into the cage
Jamie gets up
The heavy shadow also rises
The unwanted, only company
Jamie takes a shower
Water pouring hot and clean as angry man's blood
The bars cannot be washed nor melted
Jamie, the golden child
Jamie's gold is turning into stone
Jamie takes a bus ride
Circumventing the forever nameless faces
Are their shields up too?
Jamie gets to school
Nails buried deep within the palms
A secret buried deep within it's ugliest of kingdoms
Jamie laughs much too loudly
For it takes an earthquake to cover the storm
It's relentless shivers just won't die
Jamie, the martyr
The crown of thorns restlessly resting on Jamie's head
Jamie walks back
Way back
Yesterday's sun - today's dark cloud
Jamie listens to a song
Swimming in the pool of ease
A pool much too shallow for Jamie's big fat shadow
Jamie stops to smell the flowers
But finds none
Only a concrete meadow swallows Jamie's feet
Nobody ever considers Jamie
But this evening Jamie is considering
Jamie comes back home
And finds all hopes lay fast asleep
Or is it the reek of death?
Jamie undresses, and then some more
The essence without thick skin collapses
It's tortured and it tortures
It's weak and it weakens
It's broken and it brakes
The menacing trigger
The blood flow
The bare images of hot white pain
It all drifts away
As Jamie drifts into sleep
Jamie, the divine soul tainted
Much too used to taking bullets
Jamie, the heart that bravely fought
Jamie, for who would have thought so many demons
could live within an angel?
