My mind is a melting candle
Burning, shrinking
A dying light.
I'm caught up in a slumber party
Trying to keep the alcohol away from Mr.Mind
While Ms.Heart won't stop crying
About her love stories and distress,
Might as well poison the both to release
Agony from their souls.
I've tried keeping a garden
But the daisies never liked the soil they were planted in
They always seem to run away the next morning,
Leaving shriveled up raisins in their place.
Slowly burning away...
Happy thoughts always slip my mind
Like paper leaving paper cuts while gliding away.
Blood trails at my feet
I never noticed it as a problem,
Until I turned my back to see
Strangers slipping and sliding
Across the wet floor,
While the ones I loved bath in the pool of my blood.
I covered myself with thorns,
Because roses look beautiful with them,
But while I was caught up with the image of beauty
The roses grew dehydrated from kindness and love
So I set them on fire
Watching them burn
Shrink away...
If only that was a possibility
To witness sins burn away from my flesh.
