Can you make it better this time?
Can you wrap me in your arms and promise it'll change?
Can you suit up in your shining armor
To battle these cliched evils spawning in my brain?
Can you protect me from our own mistakes?
And it feels so good
the music turned up
so loud it hurts.
Only then are the demons drowned out,
There's no sanctuary in silence.
Old friends beckon from their caskets
Calling sweetly through the dark.
And with giddy abandon
I twirl into their waiting arms.
I sink into that perilous bliss,
riding away on the tide,
And I've forgotten your warnings,
your wishes.
I've left all the promises behind.
Are you still waiting to save me,
Still willing to jump in pull me up for air?
How far out can I go,
before you won't reach anymore?
And can we safely
test the waters?
Author notes
okay so this is definitely getting some form of improvement later.
the first parts came out before i had time to figure out how best to use them, and then i got distracted and really tired about halfway through. so I'll make it better later.
Please tell me what you think

Beautifully penned...
Such an outpouring of love & emotional yearning/questioning...
Soft narrative tenderly spoken with great rhythm & flow that enthralls throughout...
Keep up the good work...
Well done!!!

that was absolutely beautiful.

I think I caught that message there love.
And as always the answer is yes.
Though we will be having a little talk about this all the same.

"Old friends beckon from their caskets." Best line EVER.
Sometimes your poetry hits me harder than at other times, and I think it's because I relate better to some of it. Don't change it. Honestly. I like it the way it is. -
