A Saint Never LiesA Poem by Josh AndersonI wrote this because I'm in a bad way right now, and writing is my avenue of expression
It's in between the wounds
That I made for you A scar or a symbol Meaningless or meaningful I've made myself hurt So I knew that I could I could make it worse But I know that I shouldn't In between all the pain, is there a message you see Written in tears, " Can anyone save me" I'm not a bad man Just leaning towards damned With half of a soul That's already sold I sold it to you To make ends meet But I was the fool You stole it from me All I'm left with are scars Where there used to be a heart A Saint never lies A man never cries But I'm filled with tears and sin A walking contradiction © 2014 Josh Anderson |
