the window opens
as the wind rushes to you;
climbing up your spine
bringing memories home.
the black roses rest
lying, dying,
trying to breathe in your
soul.
as you bite your stiff-dead-fingers
you can still hear the soft melody
of life
singing in your throat.
you drag yourself down sorrow road
only finding a dead end;
full of lonely springs
and frozen summers.
your broken eye lashes fall from
heaven
landing in a mess
leaving a disaster;
flying to hell.
wishing the questions would
flee, they bombarded america
while every living soul is leftmotionless.
as the old couch patterns fade
as the air screams for mercy,
as the guilt clutches your leg.
we curse the moon
chasing the birds
wasting the seconds
we all cry.
the last breath is spoken
letting the words soar from their
life
they breathe;
if i were prettier..
would you have loved me?
this is for you kate and tess.
you made me.
