2500 miles away

Tangled, Knotted, Melted- I try to make sense out of the wreckage from your tears. So long ago, so scattered and strewn, our bullets still embedded in the soles of our feet- Weighing down our wings and windows. You looked like a child, Scared and alone- and it all came to me, but i don't know what to do. I wanted to hold you and hit you. Break you, and make you. Shake you, and still you. Erase you. Erase it all. Undo the pain Take away the tears, forget the cries. But i'm the child. And I wanted you to hold me.     make me. I wanted you to still me. But you just cried, and I'm all alone. Sitting 2500 miles away, in my home, you'll probably never see.
