Sunrise

By Laura D
October 16, 2016

Staring at the sunrise above the city below
I search to find cause for the things that I know
The laughing, leering faces that line up at the door
The ones that told how to find love from before

Before innocense was lost and eyes lost their glow
Before I found myself, with nowhere to go
Determinated little lies through steel beams; a sunrise
Comprised of dated voices that speak freely and wise

Discarded, is the place where lonley souls embark
Too afraid to witness me; the way I scream at the dark
Its just a meloncholy place I daily lay to waste
The sunrise feeds the last of me; where everyday I find a taste
