Beat Out BebopA Poem by Dana MarieGolden flames flying in front of my eyes like butterflies Silouhettes against the blackening blue sky night I feel the venom thickening through my veins I'm on a mission to find a better place
We've fought the world, yet, they don't let us win Sick of taking what should already have been given Fireflies invade the night and I miss your wandering eyes The way you stutter saying your goodbyes
Tonight I just might die In the shadow of Orion's eye I know you're waiting somewhere in the distance Visions blur into a mesh To form a thought of incoherence Oh give me repentance
Metal gates like prison bars hold me close but far You know my name, my game, you play in the same war Don't tell me that you need some time to think Because there's less and less each second the faster my eyes blink
The skies on fire in the streaks of golden yellow I search for someone through the trees but no one seems to know Where I am.
Tonight I just might die In the shadow of Orion's eye I know you're waiting somewhere in the distance Visions blur into a mesh Forming a thought of incoherence Oh give me another chance Oh forgive me another chance
