![]() On My SleeveA Poem by MikeThe
eyes that stare at me are so cold, With
each blink they steal my soul, Walk
with me while talking to me, Hold
my hand I am stumbling in consequence it buries me alive,
My heart
is tattooed on my sleeve not hiding away in my chest, My heart
is tattooed on my sleeve and its bleeding in blindness, My heart
is tattooed on my sleeve and its beating out a song, My heart
is tattooed on my sleeve exposed and waiting to breath,
The
night is so heavy it’s exhausting me and crucifying my mind, Can
there be a fix for what is already broken and in pieces, Torment
and nightmares now seem like reality rather than unconscious, Mistakes
have cost me and fortunes have fallen,
It hurts
to breath and yet it’s the simplest of things, It burns to see through a broken iris and blindness is real, The
verdict has been sent and it’s all about to come falling down, Judged
for no reason this frustration is ripping my heart to pieces,
Thunder
rain down on me and strike me to the core of my soul, Lightning
pierce my skin and rip my heart out to give it meaning, Reveal
yourself my purpose for being here and for falling down again and again, Do I
need to see the vision of a cross to truly know what I am here for?
Time
is a ticking bomb just racing by faster than suffocation, What
is this life for and what are the lights at the end of the tunnel, Creating
my own prison within myself only burns hate inside unnecessarily, Holding
my head up high doesn't change the view it just masks the reality,
Who
has got my back? Alone
fighting this story on my own it burns me inside, My heart
is tattooed on my sleeve to remind me that it’s more than a muscle, Disconnecting
from reality isn’t as simple as turning a switch it’s here and now, Who
is going to help me pick up the pieces of the shattered dreams I have laid
down,
I have
tattooed my heart on my sleeve " whatever comes will come !
