An Escape

Banging banging away
his body aches
but it’s only the pain
makeshift lies behind his parents back
looking for the next high to
get his life back
addiction slowly taking its toll
but it’s too late when he’s all alone

Maiar

He can’t remember the last sane thought in his mind
chasing memories upon memories flashing back through time
searching for the moment he broke
his stray mind collapses and leaves him forever entwined.

Ask me if I care
Just know the answer won’t be fair
My heart ripped out
My skin grows numb
And I barely breathe the air
Kept latching on
Wanting to be known
But you have shown
That nothing ever really matters

Wrong in Every Way

Doubt led me down this destructive path
While your touch held my balance
My mind is crumbling like ancient ruins
But yet you still hold on tight
As if
I was
Your last
Lifeline in this desolate world

Why won’t you let me go
No don’t answer
I’ll still be with you
Even if you are my cancer
