enough already

I'm clocking out soon

You see

My screams are not

Unheard

While they deserve to be

While the children

Who have known nothing but

Blood red anger

War

Loss

Are forgotten by our useless

Lives

That dissolve into

Whatever meaningless

Office space

We will learn to camouflage in

I beg of myself

To stop trying to be

Special

I beg of myself

To shut up about me

You are everything

What my future holds

You hold the door open

You shut it closed

You beg

On your sore

Bloodstained

Knees

Some other version of me

Wipes your tear-stained face

And paints over the horror

With a bucket of new beginnings

Time

If we could just forget about it

Then you would already be dead

Forever immortal though

Still begging for some sort of

Miracle

A miracle

That will never arrive

If it's enough, (it's not)

You are always

On my mind
