Brought From A Freezer
Can you see the light posts?
Standing in the darkness of our street
Watch the car shadows passing on the walls
While your lying down in your bed for sleep
The sound of thunder is getting louder
Cutting out the sound of the rain,
As it pours on the windowsill
My face is suffocated in my pillow
Lying face first on my stomach
This is empty like my head
Can you hear the screams of teenagers arguing?
Outside is where they sound like wild dogs
Hear the taps of the shoes strolling on the concrete
Holding conversations while they walk
My eyes half open catch the sight of the sun
While the passing storm moves on
Seeing that the day is almost starting, but I am almost gone
The sounds continue to ramble in my head
I don’t know if I will ever get to bed
Lately I have felt like I’m in a freezer
Ready to freeze right where I lay
The ground in sinking lower
While the warmth of the sun is leaving me today
I’ll freeze while I am sleeping, but I guess it will be okay
It’s too cold to complain and I’m too alone to be sane
Shut the window I think there’s a draft
Blown in from the world outside
