Blood is not thicker than water
Just harder to wash out
Me the perpetual messiah
Trying to fix
all broken things
The never-ending, savior complex-
Like that bird we found in our backyard
When I was five;
And I had to learn that
"All living things die-"
I wish mom would've taught me that
"You cant save everyone"
Instead.
You are not a bird
You don't suffer from broken wings
Your wound's are internal
Invisible
Forever perplexing the mind of
thousands of
boggled doctors
Like I was supposed to pick up
What an X-Ray couldn't.
And inject you with some secret serum
That escaped from my lips
I spent so much time
Trying to clasp your wounds shut
So much energy
But you bled out
Right in front of me
You aren't a friggin' bird.
And I cant save you.
