Leave Your Pain On The Bedroom Floor Again




Pin yourself to the bed and believe,

it's the only salvation girl, that you'll receive.


-------------------------

Does it hurt to be sober,

when you remember what you're doing?

I'm that girl with the dirty secret; herself.

I wonder how it feels to diffuse in asphalt,

dying in chemical infidenlity?
It's not that I'm cheating - at least,

I'm cheating only me.

I pull myself away, looking at the walls

and remember the first time I saw them.

This is all I've become, a caged controversy,

that nobody can believe in

or at least I wish they didn't.


I'm afraid to be sober, I'm afraid

of what I'll see.

Author notes

I wish I could say this isn't about me --
but I hate lying.

    This was beautifully penned. Drenched in sorrow. It really captured the circumstance well, from personal experience I can say it was almost as if you were dictating my own memory back to myself. Beautiful write. Thanks for entering.
