Battle

In the hospital with broken collar bone 2 broken ribs and staples in my head, was gonna take a break from writing, but I couldn't help it, I knew I shouldn't have logged in! Any ways here's a short one for my present mind state.

 

 

 

 

I'm wearing these broken bones like an outfit as I soak up the rain

 

Can I outlast the pain without narcotics flooding my veins?

 

All it would take is letting the chemicals swim to my brains

 

To get me thinking I've found some sort of hidden treasure in this temporary and false pleasure

 

It has taken quite some time to cleanse my mind of the dirt and grime

 

Left over from bathing in the tarpits

 

So I think I'll just suffer and continue to use my words to hit my targets

 

-J.A.M
