A
Curse
In my head
A
Smile
On my face.
A
Contradiction
That’s all I am.
A
Fake
Carefree life
While I
Wait
For you here.
And all you had to do to save me
was look down.
Just a flick
of the eyes
while you glide
above the clouds
Just a glance
straight down
before two heavens
finally collapsed on you…
Fire!
I shield my eyes
Look!
Not quite in time
Fall!
You loved the sky
Crash!
A million lies
I’m out of time…
I’m out of time…
I’m out of love…
It’s buried with you
Writing
about you
it’s like you
never left
A shadow
My copilot
Waiting in the wings-
alive
alive
ALIVE.
