A

Curse

In my head

 

A

Smile

On my face.

 

A

Contradiction

That’s all I am.

 

A

Fake

Carefree life

 

While I

Wait

For you here.

 

And all you had to do to save me

was look down.

 

Just a flick

of the eyes

while you glide

above the clouds

 

Just a glance

straight down

before two heavens

finally collapsed on you…

 

Fire!

I shield my eyes

Look!

Not quite in time

Fall!

You loved the sky

Crash!

A million lies

 

I’m out of time…

I’m out of time…

I’m out of love…

It’s buried with you

 

Writing

about you

it’s like you

never left

A shadow

My copilot

Waiting in the wings-

 

alive

alive

ALIVE.
