Him

After being battered

And beatin

Feeling

Sulkin

And defeated

Drowning

In the grief

That I oversee

Daily screams

And fearful

Dreams

I find I see

The pills

As peace

From the dirt and grim

In my sunshine

From the guts and glory

In the touch

Of her hands

Age withered

And promised eyes

Hungry

To take

Another breath of life

From me

The last piece

Of the puzzle

To become

Deceased

I tried

And I took

The chance to be

That "crook"

Selfish enough

To escape

The toxic life

That was dealt to me

By an unforgiving hand

But my sister

Walked in

With her dark brown hair

In a messy bun

"Don't tell them please" I yell

And plead

She grabs the pills from my hands

And says

"You can't leave me" with tears

In her eyes

A deep breath released

Her

After being

Taken and wakened

Thrown and forsaken

Used

Abused

And confused

I find

My pain resistenece

Has stayed the same

Everything hurts

Agony is my shame

I hold my tears in

For they feel like

Acid

When the run down my cheeks

I find the numbness

Peaceful

When my dreams are

Blackened

By seas

Of hacked

And lacked

Souls

That backed

Into the fire

With a cup

Of water

And a handful

Of pills

The numbness

Takes over

Leaving me

With

Nothing

Finally completing

The circuit

That spins

And swirls

Whirls

And curls

Into oblivion

And blood

Splattered on skin

Scrubbed off flesh

But leaving a stain

In it's place

Where's our "happiness"

Down the shower drain

Where the crimson

Stain

Remains
