We all come home to a shattered world. A place we’re unfamiliar with, Where we’ve lost track of time And the ones we love. The only things which meant the most to us Somehow vanish, spread, and imprint in the remaining dust. Watching us crumble, I feel it feeding. I feel it. Every ounce of energy, will to smile, Is drained from the body. I can see it all coming back As I thought it’d been defeated. Or so I thought.. Just what I needed. I envy the days that I could smile so carelessly. When I loved so freely. Where I felt I’d finished healing. Where life once lived in me. To feel as whole as I was When being vulnerable was an option Not a second thought.. Don’t you see? We’re all sad souls wrapped in gold Searching for a lovers hand to hold. 8.10.13
