 Dec 2013 Valy
Earthchild
Crumpled agaisnt the white wall
Burning tears streaming
From my hollow exhausted eyes
Down my pale cheeks they fall
Along my raspberry lips they gather
Oceanic water

One by one
The last few daisys that lined my mind
Wilt
Their petals are dropping to the ground
Ever so slowly they turn to dust
My heart is charcoal black
My walls are breaking down

I look around me the glacial walls
Melting to the ground
They pool at my sides
I drag my frail finger through the warm water
snap
Someone grabs my hand
Shaking my clouded head
I look up with red swollen eyes
Mom?

Shes so far off her voice a silent as a winter breeze
I give up
Head falls back onto my chest
I grasp my head
A fist full of my long brown hair
Shuddering breaths threatening to shake me apart
"I am so ****** up"
I whisper soft as rose petals

can't get you out of my mind
i feel so ridiculous, so blind
you've got this hold on me
and i don't want to be set free
this love is worth the pain
hope there's something to gain
apart from a torn heart
scattered all over the place
trying to create a new start
hoping it's worth all this

drunken creativity
alcohol shapes me
all of this honesty
is beyond crazy
but it's what happens
whenever i raise a glass

the night is my dearest friend
it helps me breathe but then
4am draws closer in
and the buzz ends

the thrill of the night
it always seems to fade
as the morning dawns
makes my earlier bliss
made it feel like a charade

thoughts consume my brain
they affect my days
as well as my nights
