cloudy day
Bathed in the light
Of an overcast sky
Tired and defeated
For the hundredth time
And still
I catch myself
Wondering why
Will I live
To see the spring rise
A flower withering
And begging for light
Her soil turned over
Lamenting its right
To stay in the ground
Which she learned was a lie
Face to the ground
Roots reach for the sky
Candlelight burning
A soft orange glow
Highlights a yearning
To cease my sorrow
Burning a hole
In the back of my throat
The presence of words
I never even wrote
A soft voice
Is guiding me
Back into bed
But now's not the time
I can sleep when I'm dead
Shadows around me
Have come and have went
Black walls surround me
Collapse on my head
Of an overcast sky
Tired and defeated
For the hundredth time
And still
I catch myself
Wondering why
Will I live
To see the spring rise
A flower withering
And begging for light
Her soil turned over
Lamenting its right
To stay in the ground
Which she learned was a lie
Face to the ground
Roots reach for the sky
Candlelight burning
A soft orange glow
Highlights a yearning
To cease my sorrow
Burning a hole
In the back of my throat
The presence of words
I never even wrote
A soft voice
Is guiding me
Back into bed
But now's not the time
I can sleep when I'm dead
Shadows around me
Have come and have went
Black walls surround me
Collapse on my head
