Girl

She's a little smiling girl
Arms open to the sky
But dead to the world.

She thinks her eyes are open
But they see nothing.
"Iqtms!!!"

Such a big arrow
For such a small heart

Sunk

"If we don't have God in common,
What do we have in common?"

Wow

You knocked me over
With one shot.
Way to go.
Strike.
It hurts to know
You're O.K. without me

Farewell

Riding on the back
Of your perfect farewell.

I am sad.
Everyone is scared to Death
Of Dying.
There's no woman here
No lady behind this head,
Just a little girl, silent and lost
And too scared to leave her bed.
Where were you
When I needed you most
You ran away
And told me
Its all for my own good.

It seems to me
When everything is fine and dandy
You hang round my head
Then blame me
For not running to you.

Don't call me daughter, sister, friend
I'm not your bastard child
I have a Father already
And two would be just weird.
I lost God
Under my bed.

He's hiding behind the box
Of unopened maps, cigarette butts
And a broken down heart

Too scared to be coaxed out
He's getting smaller, quieter now
He hardly wakes me up anymore

I don't wonder if He made the sky
I don't wonder if He'll hurt me
I don't wonder if I'm in His Book
I don't wonder, I know

It's all a goddamn lie.

Dad

Words
Hitting the back of the skull
So many words
Just one little night
Puts a damper on life

Words
Depression untraced
Behind the lies
And broken skies
Chemical offset mind

Words
Mean nothing
Softly cracked ice
Gently stroked eyes
Gently stroked eyes.

I told him I didn't love him.
And for the first time, he believed me.
I told him I didn't love him,
And for the first time, I meant it.

"I would give anything
To make you better."
