A Star Is BornA Poem by TraverseTheSeaI wrote this based off a girl I knew with a heroin addiction.
Is that you that I see
Crying all alone at night.... Realizing suddenly that life is passing you by You take another drag You grab another bag and lay your sorrows on the table You see thru the glass at yourself and wonder why your life's just not a fable. And I know that you know it's time for changes and the only one that you can blame is... you.... You're looking out the window.. watching the leaves as the wind blows. "Oh how can I feel so free? Let the waves just carry me out to the open sea... well that won't ever be. If only I met my father, I won't even bother to let my arms bleed... these needles will recede. I'm so caught up in addiction, pushed myself into love's affliction just to soothe the pain... Ever since I was a kid, OH all those fucked up things I did I just can't throw away.... No I won't be okay..... I'll just lie here and shake" And I know that you know it's time for changes and the only one that you can blame is... you.... Lying on the hospital bed.. Almost positive that you will pass away..... "Oh, before I see the valley I want to see my daddy... that will calm the rain...... these scars will be a remembrance of what's lying in the distance... that will be the day, that I will change" well that day is today © 2010 TraverseTheSea |
