I cant wake up from this nightmare I'm living
I thought her kisses were innocent
Her touch only loving.
And now my limbs are bleeding
But its less painful than this feeling
I have inside my head.
The 5 year old in my mind is lost and directionless
Empty.
I am so empty.
And these work bathrooms are not a good place to
cry, but its better than telling someone
why Id kill to say goodbye.
You must be very brave though..
I keep wondering what would have happened
if I had woken up
would I have been saved?

It snowed Christmas morning
And you all exchanged gifts,
Opened presents, and showed your love
Oh how I wish that was my case.
But all I have received since Christmas day
Are memories I found out I wasn't even awake for.
And how horrifying it is to try and conjure
Up these visions against my will.
Sleep evades me.
my compass a constant spin..
Denial has run away with my voice box
While betrayal has a cold pistol pressed
against my brain.
Just a child
Stripped of innocence without even knowing it
I beg of you to please pull the plug for me
It's been draining me with each passing day.
And mommy, I don't want to scare you
But I can feel my skin turning cold
My mind is wasting away
And this freshly old news is slicing my eyes
to the point where all I see left in this world
Is red.
And the worst part is
I've been afraid to go to bed
And you aren't even here.

A general rule of thumb I also follow myself. Seriously though if you need to talk you've always known who I am
That part about the work bathroom. Why is that so poignant? And I never use the word poignant.
ReplyDeleteI'm sad now.
I want to buy you a present.
Just the title had me from the start.. Don't let the cold take you, you've got a warm heart inside. Hold on tight. Your worth sticking around for, no water what.

ReplyDeleteYou take my breath away dear.
