Stitched wings
Attached to frail bones
Darkened eyes
Lifeless as stone
Halo teetering
By uneven horns
Once a smile
Before being born
No color shown
Pallet a pasty pale
Never any sunshine
In a world so stale
Lips crusted over
From the words unspoken
Corrupted mind
In a soul that’s broken
Never been the one
To stand and fight
For the dreams
That sore so high
I’m the one that hides
With fear inside
Living on burnt memories
Can’t seem to find
A fresh start
A new beginning
Without hindering hands
That grasp my sanity
Preventing me
To take a stand
I’m hurting and bleeding
From self-inflicted moods
When will I learn to love?
And heal these open wounds
How can I stop dying on the inside?
Rotting and withering away
Picking up my shattered pieces
In hope, that they’d stay
Breaking free from this hold
No longer listening to what I’m told
I’m sold on this future, meant to be
All these thoughts
Crashing down
The storm’s coming
And I’m here waiting
Can’t be hell bound
Chains wrapped around me
Screams with no sound
Sold on stories told
Silver linings and sun shine
Coming after the rain
Please erase this pain, warring
Ripping off this sorrow
Like clothes off my back
There can only be a better tomorrow
So let the rain come
Wash me clean
Swipe the things off my plate
That keep me, from me
These demons inside me
Stretch this body; so worn
Wearing me like prideful skin
Comfort is never born
Damned a daughter of Darkness
It leads, whenever I stand
"Come with me" it whispers
As its slowly giving a hand
Ripples under skin
Tingling down my spine
Where is the light so needed?
Where is the divine?
It's slithering through my veins
Beating with every thought
"Rest your head" it whispers
"I'll give you everything you've sought"
Fighting within myself
Will it ever go?
Or will I be lost forever?
The Darkness loving to sow
I feel like this is the end
How can I spread this out?
Justifying my passage not clear
Still swallowed by its wrathful clout
Them hearts be breaking
Them winds be shakin
The walls down
Down to the ground
I'm stumbling
I can't move steady
I'm high off the ground
Just when I thought I knew you
You blew out a gun and said I'm going to shoot you.
Bang to my head because I let you out if my heart
So you had no choice but to attack my logic instead
I can't believe that this is the same person that I share the same bed at night.
Once I'm nursing my wound caused by his loaded gun I'll be alright.
Used and Abused, taunted and not flaunted as a wife to be
Nor as the mother of our child, is the permanent stones of mistakes
That I have made as the points, in a place where he lives
By what he is capable to create. Debated daily about the truth,
Frustrations, enforcement to be silenced.
Transformed my easy forgiving heart is abandoned
And more than just torn apart. Each day for
About two years now and finally I just became hateful towards
Those who lie behind lies..... As to being a young woman independent,
Attending school, making payments on a ride, along with
Raising not only one but two of her own babies
That suddenly seen this psychic lady that had not only warned
But secretly had planned to keep my life torn in order
To take what I was to be blessed with out of jealousy, my life turned
Completely down a twist leaving me to be launched off a cliff...

Now and then, an angel falls from the sky,
It's wings have torn, We don't know
Why, The bed of golden earth
Below, With open arms
To cushion the blow,
This rumbling, a
familiar sound,
My life, once
more...so
upside
