#sores
* I'd rather you use bombs and knives, I'd rather you use guns and swords. I'd rather that we would have fights; that you'd leave me with open sores. I'd rather you find a different weapon, a different tool to use on me. I wish you'd make me feel a pain; I wish you'd leave me weak and ****** Yet the sharpest tool is what you use; you leave me dead inside. I wish you'd tear my heart out; I wish I would have died. You open your mouth and the weapons spill out, you're armed with words that you scream and shout. The pain is unbearable, the torture indescribable. I know there's no point in putting up a struggle. You **** me, one by one, your words an open **** They slice me up in pieces, making me feel like trash. All I can be is silent; I know that is the best. I try to block them out, but they're already in my chest. Your words are killing me; a slow, antagonizing death. Each word you say cuts me, each wound raw and fresh. I wish you'd let me be, I wish you'd leave it unsaid. I guess you just can't see you can't bring someone back from the dead. *

Open Wounds
In the cold and silent morning i feel the need of having you, Just a little touch to make my heart so pure. Like little arrows the rain pours, it leaves me with sores, only a gentle touch could fix.

Cold in silent morning
Mother, I feel your pain Your grief It's coursing through my veins As if I must take it away; It has become my quest Until this body turns to dust. Oh, Mother, I am living sores of yours, Feeling it all Deep in my core. Never thought of having a choice Until I've discovered the voice Of my own. Mother, your sadness soaks through my bones The very marrow of those Yet through time that flowed Between then and now I realised I am owed To pave the roads Of my own.
