Truth

Don’t let me get in too deep, just for me to drown
Don’t let me get so high, just for you to let me down
Don’t make things so hard for me, and make me wait so long
Don’t make me believe in vain, just for you to disappoint
Show me how you really feel, forget what can go wrong
The hurt from truth will soon be gone, it will make us strong

Notes: wrote this around January 28, 2009. Don’t know what the inspiration was (can’t remember). Maybe a song I was listening to that I internalized too much.

Ashes

Dark sky
Red embers
Burnt house
Volcanoes erupt

Blinking lights
Outlines of people
Grey smoke
Ashes around

Burn our inside
Hurt our skin
Eat our flesh
Scar our soul

Alcohol in
Fan the flames
Blacken our blood
Poison us slowly

I see the sight
I breathe the fumes
I cringe in pain
I cry for them
