Aftermath

Aftermath By Laura September 28, 2015 The chaos is gone But the echoes survive The darkness still smiles In the echoes of night I put down my arms Every day stays the same I even came clean And I changed my last name So why am I the same In the depths of my mind? Why am I still lost? Still, the blind leads the blind I'm slowly falling apart Into the arms of my dreams But all my sweet angels Lost themselves in the seams The fire has left But the scars still remain With every last drop These tears drive me insane I found a way to pray Without a god to hear my call Tore off my skin of yesterday Without a cause to catch my fall I'm crying out these words again Forever, crazy, desparately I'm leaving scars far in the past Free like the leaves inside the breeze
