Crying yourself to sleep as a forgotten yesterday closes in
Acid dipped and toxic chrome glistens in blood
Discarded you leave a light on to save from stepping on glass
Syringes littler another day scratching your name on the wall
Somewhere a scream is carved in a distant memory
I cannot remember when I heard your name whispered in my ear
Listen
Hush my sweet
Buried in your skin is a key to this belonging
Chance be taken as I drift into severed dreams
Gritty is the kiss on lipstick lips painted scarlet like words scrawled on the mirror
"Death becomes hypnotic resolutions"
Laughter
Mocking the shadows as they close into my being
Hush
Listen to the voices in my hand
Travel the carousel in its never ending journey passing angels on my side
To change a fragment in time when the hands have passed
Eloquent words fall on ears with no sound
Begin
Begin again
Pure emotion overtakes the maligned thoughts crawling the ceiling
Fractures envelope every corner
Every sentence uttered begins again
Every syllable hides the true thought as you begin to grow again
