Before Maturity

You gave me life, Your words turned me into a Queen As they step out of your pretending lips Believing in you more than an angel Your voice still sounds melodious in my heart, I forever held you like the Holy Book It was like "a cool day in hell" to forgo you, Now life has thrown me in the midst of colorless air You are less than a minute, Harmful than Ogre, You've cleaned my tears with spears Changed my joys into tears, Pulling down my cheeks like waterfall lonely like the sun/I bawl You was my hero But no more/rather a group of loons I warmed the pain from my heart with cartoons... As I snake myself in bed I interview myself What have I done The jarring of crickets keep me awake Sun rises and falls, Moon reflects and falls, Days come and go, You came with the theme of staying Now is no more Before this time your words were constant You have made me know what humans are That shows how awful it is to trust one, You persuaded me to trust you And I did more than you wanted You stepped into my life with your giant feet That was before maturity
