PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Peeling eyes wide open
A searing feeling, a darkened light
I pray the storm will come
And wash the grime from my skin tonight

The immaculate star will burn through me
Write his scripture in my veins
Leave my heart untouched, pure
A feeling I wanted to attain

He carved a message into stone
Flooded my memory with brilliant people
All fading and fizzling out at once
Making room for so much love

I feel every lover disintegrate in my arms
Wailing into the night, sputtering
Soaking up the atmosphere, fading
Breaking down the barriers and caving

Drenched to the bone and so alone
Sing to keep me company
But you just flicker and tear at the wind
Leaving nothing but dust for me

I crashed through your stained glass heart
Sewed my wounds together
So much blood stuck to my gritty feathers
I wish I could try again
