Shelter me from the rain

As the bottom drops out
Of the alley you live in
The place that you breathe in
Live in your essence
Capture the regression
Seedy on this side of life
Shelter me from the rain

Subtonic diversions
Carry the screams internal
Its your eyes that tell
Existence
Subsistence
Day to day
Shelter me from the rain

Hear you story
On ears that bleed
A mind that seethes
Voices that whisper
Blackened curs
Stench fed teeth
Shelter me from the rain

Im your brother
Sister
One you loved
But you cast aside
As the blood
Blackens your palm
Shelter me from the rain
