TiredA Story by Kathryn SmithPut you on a pedestal and sat you on a throne I found all your skeletons Your closet full of bones I'm better off alone To dumb to deal To numb to feel Your knife in my back I'm tired I think of you Before I sleep in my sheets I break I hate I'm tired I think of you In the morning when I wake I wince I hiss My eyes filled with soot My heart full of muck I'm tired Why can't I let you go? My mind a slave My feet so cold My throat coated In poisonous memory My tongue bursting with words for you But you're safe Far across the sea I'm tired Of knowing you were with her and her and her and her too What was I to you? You say you are weak Guess what? Two facts The weak get weaker Then they die Or The weak grow stronger They thrive While you waste away in misery I begin to rise I am stronger than you For I could never do what you do Oh Judas I hope you can see You are now dead to me A shadow on the ground A silhouette upon the wall I will haunt you Forever until you fall You warned me you were cunning and I should warn you That I am coming Running Flying to you For a Goddess found her voice Her power Her light and Judas You're only a boy A boy who murdered his life © 2016 Kathryn SmithAuthor's Note |
