SearchingA Poem by Ashley BlairHappy tastes like a foreign land And I'm wanderlust I try to form it with my lips The ones you kiss And it comes slowly Shockingly A new substance in my body Like the way I say mom Like the way she left me My sadness seems to lie Evermore in the grave it's dug For me Spray painting roses black Because it says I'm destined to be Bleak and weary But maybe It's because This melancholy is blind It doesn't realize I have a light My heart bleeds Even in the sheets Rising to the surface of my Paper thin body But my happiness always Realizes It's home Is inside Of your eyes
