Poison

by Meth   Apr 24, 2016


Watch me as I saw away at this heart of stone
The emptiness steals in and creeps into every bone
I scream to let the blood out of my ears
Tomorrow just won't stop,won't stop turning into years
See the wrinkled skins,the dry wobbly knees
I scream to release imprisoned pain
Madness takes over me,that I may become sane
All that was green sadly turns bad and brown
New replaces old,slowly,sometimes,suddenly,new loses its crown
Tears trickle down my face,they tickle my spine
Brutal ugliness lies between all things fine
Absolute vainness is the totality of this wonder called life
We labour and toil,still to rot in the pit of strife
We shouldn't have to try so hard and cry,sigh and die
Because the rebel,the devil,told a lie.
