i'll cry in your lap
i have no strength
someone to help hold me up
i live in a glass box
smeared and unpolished
look me over
see if you like
what i display
the rise of my cloud
like a little lost beam
the sun rips the sky
crimson tears splash to the ground
how would you like me,
fresh or well done?
i lie in your arms
a rotten piece of meat
but will you still want me,
when all is now done?
the buttons of my soul
slip shut in the light
come live with me
in the shadows of my life
king me a woman
and slash out my child,
a demon of force.
slice out my heart,
i need it no more. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 165 [topic] => 13 [informant] => MDodgen [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 3 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )
