Life

Acid tears plough ditches down cheeks Holes in the soul leak life's candy like blood Handcuffed to reality, pain seeps in An alcoholic grabs the neck of a bottle A flesh wound to the soul The wall of feathers blown down The lock cracked, the monster uncaged Demon fed by the guillotine of love Revenge it's only passion A cocoon has produced a snake The stranger inside you now leads you to the cliffs edge Don't slip A kiss lands cold upon your cheek; death turns away Needle raindrops of insanity pierce your reality Frustrated and imagined, you throw yourself to the ground The floor of cracked glass you created shatters you crash, fall back to the beginning Golden grass of experience cushions your fall Life's destiny known solely to the hands of fate Tears saturate your eyes; the fix you long for Again You rush to hide your chickens before the storm Barn struck by lightening, afire is all Flames charge the heavens, tempting Hell Gaurdian angel fallen Nothing Turmoil weakens your cruelty You kick the black cat from your path A grave digger unearths a tomb To see the bones but not the people Light a candle to see only what you wish Preception is nine- tenths of reality All left unsaid, undone, unheard Now but an echo into eternity
