.... sorry?

.... sorry?

A Poem by Loribeth215

There's a shadow by the bed

There's a memory

making holes in your head

 

Are you sorry now?

Are you grateful now?

 

There's some miseries swimming between your fingers,

There's some breath in your body left to linger

 

Are you sorry now?

Do you even know how?

 

There's a halo in your eyes

There's a universe that burns there and dies

Are you sacred now?

Do the angels rise to defend you now?

 

With your final vow,

do you scream, do you pray, do you know how?

 

Are you sorry now?

Are you sorry now?

Like Cole Spire i seriously heard music as i read this. It reminds me of that Michelle Branch song "Are you Happy now" but wayyyyy way way better lol. This is so powerful and strong...amazing job i think this is my favorite of yours! You can feel the intensity i love it!
