Crimson

You made me bleed,

I broke open your scars,

the crimson color running out of our hearts.

 

To late to stop the bleeding,

I can tell we're repeating,

now it's went through the bandages.

 

You and I trying to reverse the damages,

but it's to much to manage.

 

So I'll take the blood and tears you left me with to paint my canvases.

  • Whispers of a home

    I hear the tick of a clock letting me know every second I am wasting as I scroll through my phone,

    the slide of my finger against the screen,

    the tap of my thumb as I message someone back,

    artificial noise.

     

  • A child in Spring

    Some where there is a child jumping in new puddles,

    playing in the soft mud of the Earth,

    full of joy.

     

    Some where a child picks springs new dandelions,

    blowing on the fluffy seeds to make wishes.

  • A letter to ICE

    Pledge your life to liberty and justice,

    raise your hand and take an oath to serve and protect,

    who are you protecting though?

     

    I watch the news and see agents hurting the innocent,

    children,
