the lights flicker on
Melanie Jackson
Oct 2021
the lights flicker on
the lights flicker out
i can still hear her voice bouncing off these empty walls
can still see her shadows on the walls
can still smell her
The lights flicker on
The lights flicker out
im almost forgetting the doctors words
she cant be dead that cant be true
He lied the doctor had to
Shes going to see me soon walk through that door laughing
The lights flicker on
The lights flicker out
But she is dead i know she is
Why would she do that
Why would she drink
Why would she drive
Didn't she know how much that would hurt me
She had to why couldn't she just called someone
Why did she have to die
I hate her for that
The lights flicker on
The lights flicker out
I don't even care honestly
I have not showered for five days
have not been able to leave my bed for 10
But i don't care abut her
I don't need her
And i'm fine
I don't need anyone not even myself
The lights flicker on
The lights flicker out
Why couldnt have been me
I would have rathered it be me
Why couldn't i have ran in the car
I would trade my life to go back
To tell her not to go
Its all my fault why didn't i warn her
I could've please trade my life
The lights flicker on
The lights flicker out
Its been two months now
I'm okay
Shes gone i cant change that
No one can change that
Its not my fault
I'm not mad
I will find love again
It still hurts when i think of her
Still breaks me down
But i'm okay
But i'm moving forward
because i have too
the lights flicker out
i can still hear her voice bouncing off these empty walls
can still see her shadows on the walls
can still smell her
The lights flicker on
The lights flicker out
im almost forgetting the doctors words
she cant be dead that cant be true

Shes going to see me soon walk through that door laughing
The lights flicker on
The lights flicker out
But she is dead i know she is
Why would she do that
Why would she drink
Why would she drive
Didn't she know how much that would hurt me

Why did she have to die

bright green eyes open.
ice in my veins as I hear the sound
green eyes flicker to him
for a moment of a heart beat frozen in time
release of breath
running in the hall to reach the future
running in the hall to save a lost soul
running in the hall to see him praying
on his knees, alone, confused, lost
green eyes flicker
green eyes flicker to red blood on white collar
green eyes flicker
green eyes flicker to words leaving trembling lips
green eyes flicker,
green eyes flicker to tears of the future,
carefully formed by the present
the memories tear my soul apart,
the blue flickering lights
the neon orange jackets, stern voices
the black denial that hurts,
hurts.
green eyes flicker
blue lights flicker
so ******* alone in the hall,
footsteps, merely echo of the past
green eyes flicker, tears forcefully fall
green eyes flicker, whom should I call
green eyes flicker, sliding down the wall
dark green eyes close.

This is tonight. This is my fear. This is my reality.
Tonight was a really ****** night.
Tonight was a really ****** night.

I saw your spaceship in the sky
For the first time, I was inspired
Whisk down myself from my pallor state
Explore your traces on the other side
I was told to not listen
I was told to not deprive
The agony's waiting
For my ego and essence to combine
Oh, how false it is to hear
That the children know the answers
We are saints who became sinners
Viruses whom itself the healers
Oh, how false it is to see
The people down in the forest
Singing a beautiful chorus
Where anyone's forced to swallow phosphorus
Flicker once, flicker twice
Heaven turns, rocks will rise
Remain untold and remain unwise
A planet where else no one criticizes
Flicker once, flicker twice
March up to the sea
Take me up, seal the door
Though I don't want to march here anymore
The pantaloon
The silver spoon
The lady walks
Unto the moon
Remembrance and escapades
I will perish alone,
Very soon
