mother spills lies from her wine stained lips; the ones that I used to kiss goodnight. "I love you," she says, but she'll do it again. she'll shatter my heart and walk upon the broken glass, ****** feet and wondering where she had deceived me; but she's only deceived herself by shooting up another time. going to drug deals at only age five, I grew up too fast and there's a world of chaos inside my mind. the pain lashes out on me like I've been hit on the skin with a rubber band. my toes sink in the sand and I stare into the ocean of the disease, she's drowning in the water but she knows how to swim.
