Bus Stop Blues

Pinched,
     warm fingers prod,
          gathering fragility,
kneading emotions dough

risen,
     beneath lions jaw,
          dominated songs lament,
singing bus stop blues

pleasure,
     charades in hollow promises,
          addictions my soul can't shake













Author notes

Prompt: Long lost words whisper slowly to me

Still can't find what keeps me here

When all the time I've been so hollow inside

I know you're still there

Watching me, wanting me

- Haunted by Evanescence
