I have
I am
I live under rain
With a roof in-between
I still live with the pain
Toothaches and dementia dreams
Seems so unreal
Young, with boldness, I grasp at the future
Blizzards all white… nothing to see
Dead babies, lost wars
Falling bombs that never land
Petty crimes, handcuffs laughing
No legs to carry my hopes
No arms to reach for the sky
I swim inside the horrors
I have it all
No monsters under my bed, nothing to fear
Cotton candy dreams
Lovers who only scream
Alone sipping coffee, forget the cream
Sugar coated illusions
My life camouflaged unseen
So I smile and laugh as I stand tall
No one sees the desperation as I fall
Black rose and sanguine pensive moods
Why?
Am I so miss-understood
Headless
Driftwood in the sea
