Heavy

Heavy

A Poem by coffeeoften

I'm always the last to find myself a dunce
you fooled me more than once
those lava lashes smolder
bat with fire, her desire
give me some elixir
keep me sane, to feel the rain
show me a heart within a soul
Get out of my mind
with your melodies
slick like ice
thick like poison
heavy has brought me down
heavy
heavy
show me light
What subtle smile will find mine
rolling on coincidence
unsure of anything but selfish
full grown but just as passive
child's eyes within a man
fallen to the tragic
isn't life tactless
Get out of my mind
with your melodies
slick like ice
thick like poison
heavy has brought me down
heavy
heavy
show me light
Entertain some thought of honesty
honestly I'd like to maim
I've never come to terms
with intended cruelty, thick surrender
replaced or swept aside
dust in the breeze
chips on your sleeve
Heavy has brought me down
heavy
heavy
show me light
