Molly

Molly Molly raves again At all the things unseen Their voices chambered tight In her restless dreams… She bites her nails in worry Until they start to bleed She looks around in fear She is a soul in need… Her hair is a mess From the thrashing about Her wild eyes searching In suspicious doubt… The pads upon the walls Lessen all the pain As she flings and flails Over and over again… Now she lay still The buckles are too tight Her drugs take affect Something’s just not right… Laura steps up From out of Molly’s mind The jacket holds her still The darkness makes her blind… Molly is now a shadow Laura takes the Reins She lashes out at nothing It all remains the same… Laura walks the halls They all stare at her She gazes silently back Sara begins to stir… Laura drags the comb Through their matted hair She’s looking at the mirror At Molly standing there… Sara throws her self At the vision that she sees Laura fades away Molly starts to scream… Sara wants to kill her To rip her from their mind Laura sobs in terror Molly’s gone this time Sara drags the mirror Across their fragile wrist The pain is met with silence Molly watches it… Laura is the first To succumb to endless sleep Sara laughs out loud Molly begins to weep… The river, it runs red Through their fractured mind Sara’s laughter stops Molly laughs this time……
