Butterflies
Tear stained eyes
Won't get out of my head
Won't get outta my stomach
Won't get out of my bed
-
In the darkest of lights I hear heartbeats
In the middle of the night, feel it pounding
In the saddest times, they won't stop sounding
-
They won't stop screeching through my ears
Through my brain
Screeching, screeching through the tears
Through the pain
Picking away at my fears
Now I'm awake
-
The demons heartbeats drive me insane
I don't wanna fall back asleep
I want them to get the literal hell outta my brain
But I also don't want them to leave
I want hell to rain, and I'm not one to weep
So see if I feel pain, I'm going back to sleep
Author's note: I got up at 3am, wrote this, and went to sleep. I guess I forgot to publish it lmao but I think this is my favorite poems so far #fuckyoutothemoonandbacksatan #whatwasthathashtag
