Pictures of clarity
Have no meaning to me.
Everything left behind
With broken trust.
A shattered mind
Clouded by choking dust.
Search forward
For a life not over.
Hear what they scream
Amongst falling clouds.
It's as awful as it seems
Amongst faltering crowds.
Tune into a forgotten radio
Without a spoken lie.
A suicide watch
Has been called.
Bloodied wrists
With mangled fists balled.
Say what you mean
Because you never wanted this.
Say what's on your lips
And ignore a foretold kiss.
Forgetting everything
Which was true to you.
Hear the voiceless sing
In a tune so blue.
You've left behind a mess
On your favorite bloodied dress.
