Razor Blades

Razor Blades By LoLa Moments that we had together Forever lost in the echoes of time The rhyme inside this face of hers Tattoed hands; extended lobes and lines The countless times we fell inside our empty hearts We got so lost and made mistakes We met our fate, mourned us in the wake Hammered nails once standing tall: and none of it was fake...to me I operate the aftermath of the memories of we The things we held so dearly and free now open eyes can finally see Broken families showing everything we’ll never be The bridges and trees we burned to plant the seed of you and me Your shouting words and viscious tongue The flashbacks now, that flood my lungs I cannot breathe or sing; you stole my melody You burned my heart, efficiently to the third degree About the way you never trusted my eyes Projecting insecurities with schizophrenic lies But i loved your jeckyl and hyde; never knowing why Finding now I needed your hand so I could cry...or die I can still feel your razor tongue on every bus route You dragged me down and hollowed me out Rebuilding now and moving on with myself Scared and lost; to think of me and no one else
