maybe all i need to stop this pain is a little motrin. maybe all i need to stop this bleeding is a band-aid. maybe all i need to stop this screaming are some ear plugs. maybe all i need to stop this drowning is a life raft. maybe all i need to stop this agony is a little numbness.
numbness...
it wears off,Β Β doesn't stop the pain only holds back the flood gates of sleepless nights and screaming hearts, bloodshot eyes and rejections knife. just long enough for me to catch a glimmer of hope, a mirage in the Sahara, so beautiful yet so cruel.Β Β just as i get close enough to taste a sweet tomorrow, the desert sun sets. and i'm still bleeding, and you're still gone.
maybe all i need to stop this searching is a little less hope.
feedback? i kinda like this as spoken work....thoughts ;)
