I want to fly away
Fly away deep into the void
A whisper trembling
Out into the chaos
Catch a moment
A glimpse of reality
Learn to parachute
Falling farther down into
MADNESS
It's the screech of tires
As the world descends into fire
And you conspire
To take my life away

You live so desperately
Act as if I am your destiny
**But I am not the girl you want me to be
Shaking hands will never do
Keep your eyes peeled for the next disease
A slip up will change your life

There is no cure for heartbreak
No love left for the lost soul
Wondering how they will live
If their lover dies
And you the surgeon
Cannot sugarcoat
Cannot attempt to make things better
All you can do is hold your head high
Take the tears and the blows with grace
And remember to smile next time you save someone
Because of you they can see better days
Idk if I like this one but oh well
The fog creeps
Quietly over each
Tomb
The clouds covered
Our moon
Tonight, we are
Different
Wet leaves stick
To our skin, we dance
Softly over the
Dead
Jagged teeth
Bring the untimely
Demise
Of a child
We have become
Different
Knots on knots of
Rope
Hang from each
Rotting branch
New victims bring
A gift each night
You will never find
Someone that cares
For you more than
I do.

We are a wall of lost children.
Tiny fingers fixing
the broken pieces
Of humanities innocence
mending her compassion,
sewing the stiches of
goodwill back into
her being.
Until goodness can be seen.
Till the stars look down
flaring with pride
to see our brighter side.
Children of the cosmos
fulfilling our purpose.
