When Stars Collide

I gouged my heart out and stuck it with knives
To keep myself from feeling any sort of surprise
When the stars shine brightest
This is when they collide.
The sky falls to pieces.
My soul snuffed out like a candle in a thunderstorm
The wind breaks the wall that Ive neglected just lately
I thought I was well enough to uncover old wounds
But the scars grow uglier every day.
My mind is so muddledIm not even sure what Im thinking about
I grow so lonely
My heart is being torn inside out
Ink burst from the valves
And pretty words scatter themselves all around.
Sometimes I wish I could turn myself into a memory,
And whisk through the minds of all the people who neglect me
And shout things in their ears and overrun their eyes
So they can see the things I saw when I was alive.
So they can know what its like..
When you cant even cry.
I stuffed my heart with pieces of broken sky and old poems
To keep myself from losing sight of what life was like
And to forever imprint the inconceivable image
Of what stars look like when they collide.

| I agree with Pix here, great write. Been having some trouble these days myself. Maybe something is in the air. Several lines that grabbed me here. "the wind breaks the wall that I've neglected just lately" nice line.... and this part..."Ink burst from the valves...and pretty words scatter themselves around" and the complete stanza after that. Very good writing here. Peace to you, Laura |
