We run around in circles
Like dawn before the dead,
I watch you as you crawl along the road,
and race across my head.
I'd find you in a corner,
afraid of what you'd seen,
It isn't a half and half show,
there is no in between.
I don't know how to surface,
the wrong from the right,
I don't want to sacrifice,
my life, my life, my life.
We've seen it so many times,
but who has tried to fix,
There are so many broken homes,
and many abusive pricks.
I found a little corner,
and what did I do?
I sat in it and cried,
because it showed me you.
And now I'm terrified,
but not of the kill,
I'm terrified of losing you,
against all of my dead-end will.
I've seen it all before,
you love me yes indeed,
but now before I know it,
I'm not the one you need.
Author notes
this is random because most of my writing is these days. It really does have a meaning. You'd have to read a lot of my other poems to get it though.
