The Day One Was Greater Then Two(Astonishing Snow)A Poem by Jacky BonesBad WinterI got snow Yeah baby I know Its snow I'm cold, so cold That its growing old I try to tell myself You told me so The cuts on my throat Shine an glow... I've got rust in my mouth I'll chew an spit it out I swear, I swear, I swear it The taste of braking hearts Is the same as never going home These towering towers stand silent for a bit When you play your violin They fall like cards When you get here You'll burn up in my atmosphere So I sing where I stand An I stand where no one can see So maybe I won't be seen Swinging around Shutting doors You can see the streets Running through my eyes I'm writing a letter that's defining alive So I know what it means to be on my feet Running from the waves That take shape in my chest Sideways steps Desend to balconies The bears and the bees The ox and the trees The sky the lover and me It was an accident, It was an accident I'm sorry Mistakes look so beautiful The ground shines reflections of the moon An the difference is It makes me feel the same My favorite sight is when I'm distent What can I say? What have I done? Oh my god, I'm casting a shadow over myself But what did you say? But what could you have done? I'm freezing My toes are turning blue Neck ties, Black lies Baby, maybe my bed is growing cold Cause these sheets were once rose red Maybe my eyes are hazel, green or gold But this room is a casket That keeps askin If I'm finally dead These icicles just dont know I always ask myself When is the next last time I'll choke Stacking answers on the shelf When was the last time we spoke? Next time I'll let the stitches do the speaking I'm not seeking forgiveness or hope But I hope you wear my dreams on your sleave You better pray they keep you a float I'll pretend to be me Nothing but good intentions The faces of undivided skies Promises were only wounds But they couldn't kill me I'm cold, so cold Its snow I know Yeah baby I got snow © 2010 Jacky BonesAuthor's Note
