She was born an innocent
with ivory cheeks, button nose...
If you must go,
remember to sparkle...
There must have been a time
When I was pure and life was well...
I've found out why I have few friends,
why phones lay quiet in my hands...
I am a child of darkness
pain resides within...
Emotions are volatile
Mobile as peas on a child's plate...
I wanted her to feel sobriety
once again...
Birds on a wire -
frenetic from the...
Lost without a compass
during a time of shadow dancing...
Placing check marks upon the wall
doesn't make the days fall any faster...
I'm just barely alive,
But almost dead inside...
I wished for the gift of flight
So my heart may soar...
