you smiling flowers on the grave
you knew me when
life was life, but that was then

i pause to say
my bones will break unless you stay
i shake til i sleep
the morphine swells and bakes too sweet

this cavity is my heart
i'm sure it holds hate filled dark
so i walk the line
sniff and snort and lose my mind

I have my addictions
and i'll hide them from God
I have my predictions
that I'll someday be gone

it's a sure thing
like the snow in the sun
after winter has passed
you'll move onto life's fun

it's just as well...just as well

fuel of me

Wonderful write. You did a great job of conveying you feelings and inner conflict. I really enjoyed this piece.

Keep writing
Keep smiling
