Satisfied

Satisfied

A Poem by Brandon Mathis

I think I need to relax

Before I begin to collapse

The air in my lungs is starting to attack

The lighting has been striking

And the fire is extracted

In my eyes do I look satisfied?

When the whole world turns to black

 

Stop this world

Before it all seeps in and starts to hurt

Pull me down, hold me till I drown

I watch as your smile turns to a frown

Do you feel satisfied now?

Dig me my grave,

Put me underground

 

I don’t know if there’s anywhere to run

I have ran so much,

I have lost every bit of the sun

And I think I might come undone

Who are you and who have you become?

Will you be satisfied when you see blood?

 

Is your heart that cold?

Satisfied with your own blackened world to show

I’m so young but your hurt makes me old

Just one of many that you steal for your own

Take our lives and shatter our hope

Leaving us in your dark world to call our home

Do you feel satisfied now?

Now that I’m here all alone
