Hollow
Poems
Jun 2014
Stages of Smithereens
Needles sting
And pupils dilate
Cold alley ways in Seattle
Always set the perfect stage
For a trip to heaven
On a sheet of glass
Sirens wail in the distance
But to me, they are soothing
And my hands are blistering
And my knees
Well, they tucked in a while ago
This habit will break
This glass will crack and burn
Dissipate to emptiness
Wash out of my veins and my Wrists
My poor wrists
A door always opens
But my feet are melting
Molding into the ground I sit
Stuck in one place
Eternal
Addictive
Torture
I imagine that people say my name
They say, oh poor Hollow
Pretty and smart
She'll come around
She'll come around
But out here
In these black veins
And tainted blood streets
Hope is a dream
And dreaming is unwise
And who sleeps anyway
You can't sleep on glass
No, it pokes and stabs
And you ache and cry
It will take you
Break you
Crumble you
Shards of dust
You will shatter
And you will be
Nothing more than nothing
Just a broken soul
